Fails to clone repo .. 'Too many arguments'

[christoff-1992]

Hi there at the moment when I try to use SwiftPlate it fails to download the repo, correct me if I'm doing anything wrong. If you need further info more than happy to help. Just a heads up I normally use gitKrakken client but also have the git client installed, if it's a case of installing git via brew and making sure it's up-to-date I will proceed and feedback.

Thanks!

git version 2.8.4 (Apple Git-73)
