Usually a timeout in calls to git are due to missing credentials information. In your case, that doesn't seem to be the root problem, since I can view the contents of that repository without credentials. If you want to experiment with it, you could create a credential for that github repository.
If you don't need to push back to the repository from the Jenkins job, you could use the faster and lighter (read-only) git protocol by using "git:// github.com/jeffrey-a-schmitz/game-of-life.git" instead of "g...@github.com: jeffrey-a-schmitz/game-of-life.git". If neither of those work, you could try the https protocol, " https://github.com/jeffrey-a-schmitz/game-of-life.git";.
