The path for your git is invalid  Copy the path from File -  Settings -  Version Control -  Git and search that folder and you can see the path to your Git is not valid  Reset the path with correct location and test it  The error should be gone

I faced a similar issue  you can refer to my answer here   But since links die too often  I m going to leave a little part of the answer that might help      For people still having this error even if their git is installed   and android studio is pointing to its path  go to Settings -    Version Control -  Git and delete everything inside the text box   with the label Path to Git executable  your android studio or what   ever JetBrains product you re using  will auto-detect it

Use bin folder and exe instead  Path will be C  Program Files  x86  Git bin git exe  Also sometimes it doesn t work if there are blank spaces in path name as in your program files directory name   In that case  copy the whole git folder to root of partition and then link studio to it

If you are using Mac OS and have updated XCode you probably need to open XCode and accept the terms to avoid this error
