When I try to install RVM the following error shows up:

$ bash < <(curl -s https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/install/rvm)
Cloning into rvm...
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Cloning into rvm...
error: RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 100
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

ERROR: Unable to clone the RVM repository, attempted both git:// and https://

This is a git clone error I’m getting recently. e.g When I try to clone nodejs.

error: RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 100
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

What is the problem?

    It would seem you’re having some sort of network issue that is preventing you
    from retrieving the Git repository. The RVM script attempts to
    clone the repository first using
    git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm.git, and if that fails,
    using git clone https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm.git. Git uses
    libcurl. The result=56 part of the RPC failed error is the
    libcurl error code; 56 means Failure with receiving network data..
    The HTTP code = 100 part is the HTTP server status code that
    was returned to you; 100 means The client SHOULD continue with its request..

    Your best bet is probably to start a network traffic sniffer
    (on Ubuntu, you can use Wireshark) to see exactly what packets are
    being transmitted/received on your workstation. Try installing RVM on different workstations in your network and on different networks. I did not have any issues on my machine.
