i got it thank u. i thought i had to set as destination folder my folder by browsing through it.

that doesnt even get an answer. Read the FAQ or one of the other 99999999 threads asking the same question and having the same answer.

Delete the folder and try it, it should work then.

to davemm it still won't work.

i deleted it and created a new folder still the same problem.

i have googled for my error but i haven't found anything relevant even on git's faqs

any other ideas anyone?

yes i did but it still shows the same error. i also tried doing it with different folders and in different locations, the problem still persists.

i know it must be sth on my side because surely by now somebody would have reported it.

i am lost because i have no knowledge of git

i have a problem while trying to use the git software.

i installed git and after creating a folder "Mangos", i right-click on it and select "git gui here" then click on clone existing repository.

i type in the source destination "git://github.com/mangos/mangos.git" and the target address is set to the location of my mangos folder which is in the desktop.

the moment i press the clone button i get this error, quote:

"Location C:/Users/Geam/Desktop/Mangos already exists"

can anyone help me solve this problem because i would really like to compile mangos on my own.

thanks in advance

EDIT: i have included a link to a screenshot of the git gui
