Damn, well this is a fun bug. 😉

I think the issue is that when Visual Studio is launched for the very first time, no source control plug-in has been set. The current source control plug-in will automatically change to Git when a solution is opened from a Git repository.

We can repo this by changing the current source control plug-in to None:

Relaunch Visual Studio and attempt to clone a repository using Clone or check out code > GitHub > Clone. The following will appear in the log:

2019-02-06 09:47:47.720 [12532] EROR [01] RepositoryCloneService    Could not clone https://github.com/jcansdale/bin to C:\Source\github.com\jcansdale\bin

I'll start working on a fix.
