For example, if your top level user folder contains a space in the name, consider downloading the repo to a folder located outside of the user folder, e.g. in a new top-level `C:/apps` folder on Windows.

+      It is best to download the repo to a folder path that does not include any spaces. If using a user documents directory that includes spaces, e.g. `/user/my name`, you may need to re-open the terminal in a different folder instead.
