git: fatal: working tree 'C:/.' already exists

Tried many things like creating a new folder and initializing git there and here is what I got

    referring to the question pointed at by @Martin : what do you see if your run `echo $GIT_DIR` an `echo $GIT_WORK_TREE` in your `git-bash` session ? – LeGEC Jun 24 '22 at 06:52
  • Thanks, was able to sort it out by opening git bash in the new directory – Batmanbummer Jun 25 '22 at 09:50
