Wrong git. The one you are using (GNU Interactive Tools) does not have
anything to do with git, the version control system. In Debian and
derivatives the version control system package is named git-core so,

sudo apt-get remove git ; sudo apt-get install git-core

and try again.

By the way, you do not need to use sudo for the git clone command.

Happy hacking.
