Trying to access .properties file using spring server and cloud. Works on local repo but not in git remote repo - spring

Question

I am working on microservices using springboot. While configuring the server, everything is going smoothly. I am working on springboot 2.4 with cloud version 2020.0.0.
enabled #EnableConfigServer on the main application class
added bootstrap dependency
created new git repo and property file
added configuration to the pom file
But when I work with a local git repo, my server responds and I can access the application through URL (eg. localhost:8888/client/default).
However, when I provide my remote git URL, the server does not respond to anything. My URL is correct and I have provided the username and passwords too.
There are no errors and nothing. Only 404 error page created by springboot.
What is the issue here? can anyone help?

Main Class::
#SpringBootApplication
#EnableConfigServer
public class ServerApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(ServerApplication.class, args);
}
}
application.properties::
spring.config.name= server
server.port= 8888
spring.cloud.config.server.git.uri=https://github.com/chiranjiviNeupane/MicroserviceRepo
spring.cloud.config.server.git.username= chiranjiviNeupane
spring.cloud.config.server.git.password= ********
spring.cloud.config.server.git.clone-on-start= true
management.endpoints.web.exposure.include= *
But when I replace spring.cloud.config.server.git.url with local repo works fine. However, implementing a remote git address does not work. It doesn't give any errors too.

Answer 1

I found your git repository has main branch not master which is default branch for cloud config server.
To resolve this, you need to run client with property -Dspring.cloud.config.label=main or create master branch from main branch.
