'cloning a bitbucket project in AndroidStudio
I try to clone a project from Bitbucket into Android Studio. The project was originally published from Eclipse.
But I get the error:
Clone failed. Failed to start Git process.
What I have done so far:
Installed a Bitbucket plugin: https://bitbucket.org/dmitry_cherkas/jetbrains-bitbucket-connector/downloads (http://www.goprogramming.space/connecting-android-studio-project-with-bitbucket/)
Then VCS -> checkout from Version Control -> Bitbucket
I get a login screen. I logged into Bitbucket and I could see the list of my projects (WOW!) Then selecting a project and press ok. -> Clone failed. Failed to start Git process.
Any help on how I can clone a Bitbucket repository?

For cloning project from BitBucket we should have git software in our system.
Then Go to your destination folder --> right click and select "Git Bash Here"
It will open the command prompt --> here you can type as "git clone your source path".
The above steps are worked for me.

Below answer may help to someone.
I cloned my project from Bitbucket to Android studio old version. It was working fine. But when I update my Android studio to Bumblebee | 2021.1.1 Patch 3, I faced lot of issues. I unable to pull, commit & push.
I plan to do new clone. I unable to clone, I got Clone failed error messages. Then I figured out the issue.
First tried with HTTPS clone, it was not working. Next time I tried with SSH clone, it was working fine.
So please check with SSH way. You can get it.
