git: fatal: I don't handle protocol '​​http'

Question

I copy and pasted a git clone command from a web page: https://fedorahosted.org/ibus-typing-booster/ 

I got this:

user@host> git clone ​​http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/ibus-typing-booster.git

Cloning into 'ibus-typing-booster'...

fatal: I don't handle protocol '​​http'

Answer 1

There exists a special character between git clone and http://... when you copy and paste the whole line git clone http://.... That special character looks like a space, but it is a special Unicode character. 

Once I removed this character and replace it with a real space, the error doesn't occur anymore.
