"The authenticity of host 'github.com (140.82.121.3)' can't be established."

Good day!

I'm trying to put up a blog using a Hugo theme on CodeSandbox.io. I can't use git clone on CodeSandbox so I opted to install the git-hub package nix package which can be used on NixOS-native CodeSandbox. I've managed to have Saved git config hub.username and Saved git config hub.oauthtoken show up after inputting the Github token. However, while I'm entering the Github token (Command + V), the asterisks to indicate the inputted token don't show up (I'm letting you know just in case it's important, like if the token wasn't actually received by the prompt).

After inputting git hub clone -t annikorp/hugo-winston-theme, this is what happened:

Cloning [email protected]:zerostaticthemes/hugo-winston-theme.git to hugo-winston-theme
The authenticity of host 'github.com (140.82.121.3)' can't be established.
ECDSA key fingerprint is SHA256:p2QAMXNIC1TJYWeIOttrVc98/R1BUFWu3/LiyKgUfQM.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes
Error: git clone --quiet --origin upstream -- [email protected]:zerostaticthemes/hugo-winston-theme.git hugo-winston-theme failed (return code: 128)

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

It seems that the token wasn't actually received. Is there any other way I can input it?

Hi @annikorp, unfortunately git-hub is not an alternative to git, but it works on top of it, so when you do git hub clone you are doing a git clone underneath, so if git clone doesn't work, neither will git hub clone. Feel free to re-open the discussion if you feel this answer is wrong.

I see! Thank you for your response. I really appreciate it :)
