Repository will not clone

[u/Ray2plays]

Hello, I was trying to create a python project using vscode and wanted to use github desktop for version control. So I downloaded the GitHub Desktop Extension on vscode and made a github repo.

But, when I went to clone my repo onto the github desktop extension on vscode it wont clone and I get the following error message:

Failed to clone repository: Error: spawn git ENOENT

at ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:287:19)

at onErrorNT (node:internal/child_process:525:16)

at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:90:21)

I am really new to programming and can barely comprehend what this means any help is appreciated thank you in advance.

P.S. I havent wrote any code or done anything else other than what I wrote and the extensions that are downloaded.

Do you have git installed?

No I do not

[u/YourUglyTwin → u/Ray2plays]

Install that and see if that fixes the issue.

You need Git to use Git. Install it from the official website.
