Cloning public repository on GitHub using SourceTree

Question

I want to clone SFML ( this git ) with SourceTree and it seems to be stuck?

This is the SourceTree output:

git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false clone --recursive https://github.com/SFML/SFML.git C:\Users\admin\Documents\SFML
Cloning into 'C:\Users\admin\Documents\SFML\'...

I see the loading bar but nothing happens. No errors, nothing. It just keeps loading and nothing happens (but I see network activity).

Can someone please tell me what to do? It's my first time cloning with SourceTree and I don't see what I'm doing wrong.

(I don't have a GitHub account by the way, but the repo is public, so I don't know if that's the issue here?)

It seems to work just fine, except it does take quite a while to complete.

I tried it in command line:

C:\Users\VonC\prog\git>git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false clone --recursive https://github.com/SFML/SFML.git
