First of all sorry for sending this from another address, but my other one

I attached a screenshot of the error message.

Okay, trying to download  a file with wget gives me a 'Scheme Missing'.

No, I downloaded and installed Cygwin last week, I did also check for
updates this morning. Actually there were some git related upates but this
didn't fix it.

I get the same output here then you did. Yes I had Git for windows
installed. But I removed this when trying to fix this on my own. It's maybe
worth mentioning, that git for windows also stopped being able to push
after I installed Cygwin. Before this worked and git is also still working
on my Linux VM. So I don't expect it to be some network problem.



Any other idea?



Thanks
