I have create git repository. I try to clone using NetBeans. I choose:

Team > Git > Clone
Repository URL: git.assembla.com:myproject.git
Username: git

I select Private/Public
Private Key File: D:\Document\ssh\assembla-private.priv
Passphrase: 1234

When I click Next, There are no list of remote branch. So I cannot select one and click finish.

I am new to Git, so maybe someone can explain what step did I miss

I create ssh key using PuttyGen (private key is exported to OpenSSH)

I had the same issue,

for anyone else that ends up encountering this issue and is new to git, assembla, netbeans here is a slightly more elaborated guide.

Create a local repository as instructed by assembla, then push the repository. All this can be done on the msysgit client command line.

First things first, create an ssh key by entering : 

ssh-keygen -t rsa

Do not enter a name for the key, just press enter. You do not need to create the password either.

Once the keys are created, upload the id_rsa.pub key to assembla. (generally found in username/.ssh/ directory on a windows machine. eg C:\Users\username\.ssh\id_rsa.pub)

In all, the following instructions need to get executed : 

git config --global user.name "your name" # Set your name
git config --global user.email "your@email" # Set an email

Setting the email is important because assembla checks for it. Be sure to provide the one that you registered with.

mkdir myproject
cd myproject

git init
touch README
git add README
git commit -m "first commit"

git remote add origin git@git.assembla.com:myproject.git
git push origin master

After Initializing Git in netbeans To clone a repository in Netbeans, the following options get me through:

Repository URL : git.assembla.com:myproject.git
Username : git

Private Key File : C:\Users\username\\.ssh\id_rsa

Hope this helps people like me who are just starting out.

i also had to run this after generating the keys and uploading them to assembla

$ ssh-add

  • This is needed if you deleted id-rsa file which is a certificate you have to import into your local system. without import it, you will get notification error even thou you respected all steps from Assembla instructions. – sandalone Apr 16 '14 at 17:31

What do you get when you do:

git clone git.assembla.com:myproject.git

In a terminal window? I don't know what is Username in netbreans context, but if you are using private/public key authentication assembla shouldn't ask for your username.

When I set up Git in NetBeans, I use git@git.assembla.com:myproject.git as the URL and then my Assembla username in the username box.

Use your keys as usual and it should all work fine.

Just curious, do your keys actually have a passphrase - or are you trying to use your Assembla password here? You're probably using your passphrase but I just wanted to double-check.
