You don't have a git repository of your stuff, so you can't clone the
repository.
The way I do it is to change to ~/Documents/DirectoryName/ and type
git init
which will create an empty repository in the current directory. Then you
add your files to the repository by typing
git add *
which adds all the files to the staging area, followed by
git commit
which commits them to the repository. And now you're off and running!
Good luck,
Carl
