Installing Citra Nintendo 3DS Emulator

I'm installing Citra Nintendo 3DS Emulator by following the instructions from here and everything is running smoothly, and then I hit git clone --recursive At first I thought everything seemed normal, but then my computer showed this message: git is not a command.... Now what do I do because nobody else has to go through this, they just say "Hey Linux, run git clone --recursive " and it works?

git is not installed in Ubuntu by default, so install git if it isn't installed already. Open the terminal and type:

sudo apt install git
cd ~/Downloads
git clone --recursive 

The third command will create a new folder named citra in your Downloads directory which has 95.3MB of files in it. It will take a while to download, so wait until the download is completed and the terminal returns to the terminal prompt.

Then change directories to ~/Downloads/citra and try to install Citra again. Building Citra in debug mode using the gcc >= version 5 is recommended. The default gcc in Ubuntu 18.04 is gcc version 7.3.0.
