title: view the git repository on remote linux server -> in Windows?
body: <p>Problem: Need to view Git history visually in windows, repository is on remote Linux server (Ubuntu).
  Question: What are two easy ways to view the git repository on remote linux server -> in Windows?</p>
  
  <p>I have initially tried mirroring the remote mirror, then viewing it locally - updating when needed, but I get an error when connecting,</p>
  
  <pre><code>git clone --mirror username@serveraddress.com:/home/username/projectfolder
  
  fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
  Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Again I'm on Windows using Git Bash, trying to clone a remote repo that's on Linux.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
