Names with spaces need to be quoted, as in:
git clone "~/Google Drive/git/ProjectFolder.git/" /
And some folder commands have a hard time with a slash at the end. You
might also try:
git clone ~/Google\ Drive/git/ProjectFolder.git /
or
git clone "~/Google Drive/git/ProjectFolder.git" /
I don't use git in Windows, but I live in Windows scripts...
Good luck.
