Failed to clone [...] via git, https and http protocols, aborting

[Dominik Peuscher]

Hi,

I have a problem with the resolving of my dependencies. My composer.json looks like this:

{

  [...]

  "require": { 

    "php": ">=5.3.3", 

    [...] 

    "predis/predis": "dev-master", 

    [...] 

  }

}

This could be resolved until today where it throws an error:

composer.phar update

This can happen with very old composer setups (probably around a year
ago..). Removing the affected vendor like "rm -rf vendor/predis/predis"
then running update again should fix it.
