Unfortunately CMD does not support the -ls- command, you will need to install "Git for Windows" or use the workspaces provided on the treehouse website.
Most of the commands for VCS courses here in Treehouse are UNIX-OS based hence it won't work on windows.
Hopefully I've helped

969 PointsHi Olivia,
Where are you typing the 'ls' command ? Windows (cmd) or Mac (terminal)
