The first part of the message is more of a warning. One can create an empty $HOME/.cargo/cargo-generate.toml to silence it. The file is described in https://docs.rs/crate/cargo-generate/0.5.1. It appears it is not in the latest version of that documentation.

And I suspect for me the reason this was failing is my ~/.gitconfig has the lines

[url "ssh://git@github.com/"]
    insteadOf = https://github.com/

I didn't want to change my .gitconfig but I found this alternate path to use that makes cargo-generate and git happy.

cargo generate --git git@github.com:rustwasm/wasm-pack-template.git
