This is a common problem on Windows... there is a maximum length for the file path...
Try cloning it directly to your C: drive, rather than in the directory C:\Users\Jan\Documents\GitHub
Maybe removing that part of the path will be enough to make it work. If not, you're out of luck and will have to use a different OS than Windows. ;-)
You can also try to download the repository as a ZIP file, and extract only the code parts of the repo... since the folder "docs/bridge/Power Tips..." doesn't really sound like an essential part of the firmware ;-)
