The problem is that you probably do not have git installed in your environment, since git is not recognized with a command, since the log displays the following error message:

Error: not found: git

If it is installed, include it in the environment / user variables.

To solve this, please download for Windows and install it. After installation, when executing echo %PATH% at the command prompt you should see something in the output that contains the installation path, something like this:

C:\Program Files (x86)\git\cmd

If you have this in the output, it is likely that git will be recognized. To be sure, type git --version and the version of git should be printed. After that,% w /% will no longer display this error.

When installing PATH , by default the first option is selecting, as below:
