After searching through discourse, still no luck =(

I am cloning a private repo from gitea, and got the error:

> fatal: could not read Username for ‘[https://gitea.hostname.com](https://gitea.hostname.com)’: No such device or address

My environment:

- Gitea 1.8
- Drone 1.1.0

Drone Env:

> DRONE\_KUBERNETES\_ENABLED: true  
> DRONE\_KUBERNETES\_NAMESPACE: drone  
> DRONE\_KUBERNETES\_SERVICE\_ACCOUNT: cnc-drone-pipeline  
> DRONE\_GIT\_ALWAYS\_AUTH: true

Already tried:

1. checked repo is in private

> `+ drone repo info org/repo`  
> Owner: org  
> Repo: repo  
> Config: .drone.yml  
> Visibility: private  
> Private: true  
> Trusted: false  
> Protected: false  
> Remote: [https://gitea.hostname.com/org/repo.git](https://gitea.hostname.com/org/repo.git)

1. checked .netrc got the token, and when i paste it into [jwt.io](http://jwt.io) to see what’s in payload, there’s no useful info about the user. And it’s not able to clone, then i tried using [https://username:password@gitea.hostname.com](https://username:password@gitea.hostname.com), it worked.

```auto
clone:
  disable: true

steps:
  - name: clone
    image: docker:git
    commands:
      - echo $DRONE_REPO_PRIVATE
      - cat /root/.netrc
      - git clone https://token@gitea.hostname.com/org/repo.git

```

```auto
+ echo $DRONE_REPO_PRIVATE
2 true
3 + cat /root/.netrc
4 machine gitea.hostname.com
