There is a .idea folder within the repository which shouldn’t be there. Inside it are vcs related files which might contain a path not on your PC.

Make sure there is a .git folder within the project fold er on your PC. If not then you’ll have to clone the project properly if you need the vcs tools enabled. Here’s a link on how to do that: Git Basics, search for Cloning an Existing Repository​

Then, you’ll need to close Android Studio, delete the .idea folder and then open Android Studio again. It’ll recreate the .idea folder and problem should be resolved.
