Cloning on ubuntu takes a long time

I installed git on ubuntu using the command

sudo apt-get install git-core 
sudo apt-get install git

After that I tried to install node.js using the command

git clone git://github.com/ry/node.git

This step says

Cloning into node..

and takes a long time and does not return.

Did I miss something?

This repository ( git://github.com/ry/node.git) actually redirects to the account joyent.

Try the destination URL with git or https protocol and see if the clone works faster.

git clone git://github.com/joyent/node.git
git clone https://github.com/joyent/node.git

Plus, 2 days ago, GitHub had a problem that could affect the clone:
