Like this:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ git clone https://github.com/raspberrypi/tool
Cloning into 'tool'...
Username for 'https://github.com':

It wants your username and password for your github.com account, not for your own RPi.

Maybe that's because there is no github repository called "github.com/raspberrypi/tool"

Perhaps try -

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/raspberrypi/tools
