What the heck is that? You need to be a developer to understand all these steps

Make sure you have python 3.10 installed and that git has been added to path.
I had this issue, was running python 3.7. Installed 3.10, removed the stable-diffusion-webui folder, re-cloned the repo, and reran webui-user.bat and it worked (or at least its past this issue now)

Yeah this fixed it for me. Make sure you guys reinstall git and try adding to path (it should be in programFiles if you are on Windows). Make sure git is added to path properly if it is already 'added', errors here mean that you have issues running git commands because it isn't added to path properly.
