Research direction

Start by comparing Gittyup's clone and fetch behavior with the command-line SSH workflow described in the issue, including its SSH configuration and key settings. Trace the repository remote and SSH setup used by Gittyup; done means cloning and fetching the repository work through the application using the same SSH URL.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I created a repository at the command line yesterday and then, via Gittyup, I made my initial commit and pushed to github via SSH. Today - from a different PC - I cloned the repo, made some changes, committed to a new branch, and pushed these changes back to github.

When I got home I went back to the original PC and tried to fetch the changes, but Gittyup reported Unable to fetch from 'origin' - ERROR: Repository not found. I deleted the local copy of the repo and cloned it again, also via SSH, from the command line - this worked fine. I opened the local repo in Gittyup and it showed the new commits, but when I tried to fetch it just gave the same error.

I have tried supplying the path to my SSH config file and default SSH key file via Tools -> Options... Misc, but the error persists.
I have also double-checked that the origin remote is set correctly via Repository -> Configure Repository... -> Remotes.

If I delete my local copy of the repository and try to clone it directly from Gittyup it says: Failed to clone into <path_to_repo> - ERROR: Repository not found. I double checked that the URL field contains the correct SSH URL as copied-and-pasted from github.

Why am I unable to clone or fetch while using Gittyup when I can do so without issue from the command line? And what can I do to fix the issue, please?
