Answer: How to fix 'The project you were looking for could not be found' when using git clone

First of all verify your credentials are correct.

git config user.email
git config user.name

If they are correct, try appending your username@ before your repo address.

E.g. Instead of

git clone https://repo.abc.com/projectname.git 

Try

git clone https://username@repo.abc.com/projectname.git
