Cannot clone my private repo

[srggrs]

Hi I've followed the documentation and successfully run a force build on one of my public repo, but when I try to do the same with a private repo, I get this error:

Cloning into '.'...
fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': No such device or address

I've created the token, but what am I missing?

the log show that it executed the command:

git clone https://github.com/srggrs/Test-Repo-for-Builbot-Travis . --progress

[srggrs]

I found that though I can insert the token in the project conf, it is not inserted into the URL for cloning the repo, resulting then in a failure in the authentication stage.

The clone command must be like:

git clone https://MYTOKEN@github.com/USER/REPO.git

it is more of a buildbot issue. Buildbot_travis is just using the relevent buildbot module for git.
You should probably start a discussion there. I think indeed the token authentication is not supported, only ssh kay authentication. It could be added in a PR.
