Chptr 6 Exploring cloud editor, I typed the command "git clone https://github.com/ACloudGuru/gcp-cloud-engineer.git"  but this is the response: fatal: could not create work tree dir ‘gcp-cloud-engineer’: Permission denied

Copied from my screen:

git clone https://github.com/ACloudGuru/gcp-cloud-engineer.git

fatal: could not create work tree dir ‘gcp-cloud-engineer’: Permission denied

Where did you execute this command? Which directory were you in when you executed this command?

1 Answers

That error indicates that you might have executed the command in a non-writable directory for your user account. Normally you should be able to do that in the home directory of your user account. Try again with:


cd ~

git clone https://github.com/ACloudGuru/gcp-cloud-engineer.git
