Ok, in your last mail you told us that you typed:

git clone git://git.denx.de/linux-2.6-denx.git linux-2.6-denx

which is a real difference.  I hope you will understand that with such
imprecise information it is _really_ very difficult to help you.

Ok, so you abort the command because it will take a while to finish and
you then wonder why you don't have the results of the command?  Please
excuse me for asking, but do you think your computer can do magic?

> I want precise that I have admin rights I'm not root.

You certainly do not need to use "sudo" at all.  But since you can
obviously do it, you _do have_ admin rights, i.e. you _are_ for the sudo
command.

Again, excuse me for asking, but don't you have any fellow student who
can show you such basic things about working with GNU/Linux?  This
mailing list is surely no newbie help forum, sorry.

Cheers
