@doglasp, I think you are facing issue as below picture:

In default, author is using the SSH way to clone this git repository: git clone --recursive git@github.com:nh13/DWGSIM.git.

So we should follow the below GitHub official guide to (1. generate a ssh public key, (2. add ssh key into our account on github site, (3. test it.

https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account
https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/testing-your-ssh-connection

Below is my steps via using Linux command. Just FYI.

# (1. generate a ssh public key, and use it for ssh connection
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "NAME_YOU_WANT"
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519

# (2. add ssh key into our account on github site
cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
## Copy thie output, then copy it into Github site (See: https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account )

# (3. test it
ssh -T git@github.com

Finally, it will be ok to clone this repo after setup those steps:
