Hello, Jordi.

Hmm, it should've cloned in the "whatever" directory.

Can you post your git version/configs and maybe the output verbatim of the command when you run it?

If you can reproduce in an empty dictionary that'd be better

$ mkdir test && cd test

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/...

$ ls

Thanks, -Santiago
