Error while cloning opam-repository

[Mishio595]

This is the error I get every time I attempt opam publish after entering my git credentials

Cloning the package repository, this may take a while...
+ /usr/bin/git "clone" "[email protected]:ocaml/opam-repository.git" "/home/lyn/.opam/plugins/opam-publish/repos/ocaml%opam-repository"
- Cloning into '/home/lyn/.opam/plugins/opam-publish/repos/ocaml%opam-repository'...

This is tied to #46

setting up github ssh resolves the issue
