Short description of error
Under "Download Sources and Libraries" it does not state that the directory to download the git project to, must not contain any spaces since make tool does not support them. Finding that out only after having already downloaded the git project can be inconvenient as fixing it requires a rename of all of its parent directories or re-download, which both in some cases may waste lots of user's time considering the lack of just one informative sentence.
