This is the command I run (in either the Clion, vsc or the Windows terminal):

git clone https://github.com/torvalds/linux.git

And this is what happens:

Cloning into 'linux'...

error: invalid path 'drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/aux.c'
fatal: unable to checkout working tree
warning: Clone succeeded, but checkout failed.
You can inspect what was checked out with 'git status'
and retry with 'git restore --source=HEAD :/'

I have also tried to fork the repository to my GitHub, yet, nothing works. What should I do differently? Why this might not work? How should I go about it? I need to run a shell script related to the commits of the Linux kernel repository. Is there another way to go about it?

    "AUX" (in `aux.c`) is a forbidden name on Windows. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/31976060/7976758 . This repository cannot be checked out in Windows. https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=%5Bgit-clone%5D+error%3A+invalid+path – phd Jul 24 '23 at 13:30
