Gitkraken having no permission create folder on Linux

Question

I am trying to clone a remote repo with Gitkraken on Linux. The action failed due to having no permission to create new folder, though I was logged in as Admin. Can someone please help?

Answer 1

Gitkraken runs as your user, make sure it has write permissions to the directory that will hold your repo.

sudo chown -R {username} /path/to/repo/
