It might be also required to enable long paths for Windows by modifying the registry.

see https://www.thewindowsclub.com/how-to-enable-or-disable-win32-long-paths-in-windows-11-10 for example

/edit: As far as I remember admin rights are required for the github command. If so I would mention it too.

Updated to mention this as well.

No admin rights required for the github command, at least not when I ran it.
