The problem is:
github.com[0: 140.82.112.4]: errno=Connection timed out
Please make sure that your system can reach github.com. This is a client-side problem. Given that you are already checking out from GitHub, the problem should be transient.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I downloaded mongo_fdw-master.zip instead.
When I ran autogen.sh, I got
"
CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:46 (file):
file cannot create directory: /usr/local/share/mongo-c-driver. Maybe need
administrative privileges."

How to install in another directory where I can write?

"Note: Make sure you have permission to "/usr/local" (default installation location) folder."

What's the option if I don't have permission to /usr/local ?

Unfortunately currently autogen.sh does not have a way to direct the mongo-c and json-c to a custom directory.
Meanwhile see if you can make following change in the autogen.sh and get yourself unblocked:

This will need you to probably set C_INCLUDE_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH per your install location to get the mongo-fdw compiled and linked successfully.

e.g.
export C_INCLUDE_PATH=$PWD/mongo-c-driver/mongo-c-install/include:$PWD/mongo-c-driver/mongo-c-install/include/libmongoc-1.0:$PWD/mongo-c-driver/mongo-c-install/include/libbson-1.0

The build was successful after set C_INCLUDE_PATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH to json_lib_install/lib64/pkgconfig:mongo-c-driver_install/lib64/pkgconfig

Thanks !
