I am currently working on an old flutter project. I want to install the necessary dependencies so that i can start making changes. Now when i run the flutter pub get command, i get a certain error which is not explaining how to solve it.

pub get failed (server unavailable) -- attempting retry 10 in 64 seconds... Git error. Command: git clone --mirror git://github.com/tekartik/platform.dart C:\src\flutter2\.pub-cache\git\cache\platform.dart-6f0f0462856ed9b1246d3c594e824b1b2d81f000 stdout: stderr: Cloning into bare repository 'C:\src\flutter2.pub-cache\git\cache\platform.dart-6f0f0462856ed9b1246d3c594e824b1b2d81f000'... fatal: unable to connect to github.com: github.com[0: 140.82.121.3]: errno=Unknown error

I think the point reached for downloading the dependency and it is not showing me where i can change from git:// to git@github

Below is a code snippet of the pubspec.yaml file where the dependency is to be installed

 tekartik_app_platform:
git:
  url: [email protected]:tekartik/app_flutter_utils.dart.git
  ref: null_safety
  path: app_platform
version: '>=0.1.0'

I am trying to get help on how to solve it because i only just got the code which is an old code and so am not sure where to go and make the fix.

Thank you alot in advance.

Try changing it to:

git:
  url: https://github.com/tekartik/app_flutter_utils.dart
  path: app_platform
  ref: null_safety

More info on the packages can be found under: Dependencies on unpublished packages https://docs.flutter.dev/development/packages-and-plugins/using-packages

I managed to find the solution. The ref value the project was using is null safety which still uses "git://" which is not being used by github anymore and so that is where the error is coming from.

So i changed to

  tekartik_app_platform:
git:
  url: [email protected]:tekartik/app_flutter_utils.dart.git
  ref: dart2_3
  path: app_platform
version: '>=0.1.0'
