Vague error on git clone

[monty241]

Trying to get pull / push / clone working. Local repo work seems to be running fine.

However, remote raises vague error about that it failed. Unclear whether it is due to authorization issues (tried ssh, https, key, user/pwd combination) or something else:

For instance:
<git:clone uri="https://github.com/rimerosolutions/playground-repo.git"/>

BUILD FAILED
E:\ws\itgen\build-itgen.xml:5246: Could not clone URL 'https://github.com/rimerosolutions/playground-repo.git'.

Suggested change:
Improve clarity of error message with a cause and maybe even a recommended action.
