Hey @hasprit,

Try adding .git to the end of the url. So...

git clone -b project-skeleton https://github.com/cdimascio/nationalparks_conversation.git

Note that you will be cloning both the 'master' and 'project-skeleton' directories. So you'll need to cd nationalparks_conversation and then do the git checkout project-skeleton

PS - Make Stack Overflow your friend! In 90% of cases when I'm stuck, Stack Overflow already has a solution/answer...just have to find it. Also, have a read of this page
