Hello,
Advice you have found on the google is obviously wrong, since you do not
have any accounts on
git.minix3.org in the first place.
Git clones from this site should work without any authorization. The
fact that they do not work is an issue on the side of
git.minix3.org.
While it is being resolved, you can use Github mirror as suggested
above.
