Siddhant I am taking a look at your package this morning. A couple of issues to get started cloning your repos. Yuour instructions are slightly wrong in your README.md file.
You say run the following command: *Julia>*Pkg.Clone("git://github.com/siddhantjain/UCIMLRepo.jl.git") 1) The clone call should be lowercase 2) The path to the repo should be "git://github.com/siddhantjain/UCIMLRepo.git" So the cloning call should be: Pkg.clone( "git://github.com/siddhantjain/UCIMLRepo.git") At least that is what worked on my machine.
