Can someone please help me ?
I just posted my own experience above yours. I think it will help. You are experiencing the same thing that I was. Rather than post again just see my post. Good luck!
I have like this problem!
Can anyone help us!
You dont want to “CLONE” or “CREATE” a repository,
you want to “ADD” an exisiting repository.
That’s why it’s not working!
Click on the folder symbol “Add” and enter the same path.

Indeed, had same issue here. All i’ve done was to uncheck the “create repository on account”, got i prompt (don’t recall what was in there exactly) and i’d just confirm.
Worked fine for me.
vagnerlands explanation did it (worked±).
but I will say it’s not a well-done lecture on this entire sourcetree+github use imo.
I have the same problem. Actually, in the video Ben sais we have to “create” a new repository. This makes sense because there is no working repository before - there is just files from Unreal/Visual Studio. But even if I would take the advice and “add” this existing folder with data as a repository to SourceTree, this will not work because SourceTree then sais that this is not a working repository. Also, SourceTree frequently crashed afterwards. So, any help would be appreciated.
I’m currently running this course with a friend of mine and we got into the exactly same problem. I guess there are ways to fix it, however we found 1 fix that worked for us. Its not complicated at all. You simply switch a little around of what Ben does. Instead of installing your project to the folder you want as repository, you make the folder first. Then you make a repository of it. Then you install the project into it.
Make a folder on your disk => Make it a repository folder through Sourcetree => Install your Unreal project into this folder.
But like I said, I’m sure there are many ways to do this, but this worked like a charm for me and my friend.
