'Command to create a new project using gatsby not working

I am creating a project called "new-app". After installing gatsby successfully, I tried to run the command "gatsby new my-app". I always get an error which states:

ERROR eating new site from git: https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby-starter-default.git

Command failed with exit code 2 (ENOENT): git clone https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby-starter-default.git my-app --single-branch spawn git ENOENT

Solution 1:^[1]

I just ran into this myself. I wiped my laptop last week and completely forgot to install git. Problem solved (for me anyway, hopefully for you too!)

Solution 2:^[2]

Have you tried installing the gatsby CLI first before creating your gatsby project?

npm install -g gatsby-cli

Solution 3:^[3]

In my case, I had installed Git for Windows to use the MinTTY terminal, and I was trying to run gatsby new from Windows Command Prompt. Since Git was not configured for cmd, the command failed. Ran the command at a Git Bash (MinTTY) prompt and the command worked.

JMLima's answer is correct, but the language was not really helpful. The simple answer would be:

Install Git
Set up PATH variables on Windows

These two steps should solve your issue.
Link to download Git: https://git-scm.com/downloads

Solution 5:^[5]

Yup, this worked perfectly for me. Just install GIT from: https://git-scm.com/download/win

I set it to use windows CMD.

Solution 6:^[6]

Try this:

Download and Install Git (As others just said)
Open Git CMD & Get the exact path of your Project folder
Run the command

Solution 7:^[7]

1.First Install Git https://git-scm.com/downloads

2.Use Git Bash Termianl

Solution 8:^[8]

If you are using vs-code Editor then use integrated git-bash in terminal and run the gatsby installation command OR you can also use git terminal to use gatsby commands
