Issues in downloading Github package

Question

I am looking to download a PCA package in the Sklearn download, and download errors continuously pop up.

I am attempting to use the pip command to download directly from GitHub, but keep getting the message that 'Git' is not installed

    pip install 
    git+git://github.com/mGalarnyk/Python_Tutorials/tree/master/Sklearn

   Collecting 
   git+git://github.com/mGalarnyk/Python_Tutorials/tree/master/Sklearn
   Cloning 
   git://github.com/mGalarnyk/Python_Tutorials/tree/master/Sklearn to 
   c:\users\ommited\appdata\local\temp\pip-req-build-ggw1h5ld
   Running command git clone -q 
   git://github.com/mGalarnyk/Python_Tutorials/tree/master/Sklearn 
  'C:\Users\omitd~1\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-req-build-ggw1h5ld'
  ERROR: Error [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified

  ERROR: Cannot find command 'git' - do you have 'git' installed and in your PATH?

Should be a cut and paste install

I can't see how that is unclear. To install using git, you need git. — Daniel Roseman, Oct 24 '19 at 19:18

What does "_cut and paste install_" mean? The error message is already hinting at what's wrong: "_do you have 'git' installed and in your PATH?_" — Gino Mempin, Oct 25 '19 at 09:10

Install git in your machine. (Assuming you don't have it)

Can you also post the 'cut and paste' instructions you are following?
