Why wont subprocess call work?

[steve_shambles]

I am interested in getting this snippet to work
but it uses call from subprocess module which is causing errors

Found 8 gists in 1 pages
[*] cloning git://gist.github.com/472d2acd06a1e1c498d7134f52dd7c46.git from page 1 [1/8]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Python367/00-code snippets/possible snippets/scrape users gists.py", line 36, in <module>
call(['git', 'clone', '--quiet', gistUrl, path])
File "C:\Python367\lib\subprocess.py", line 267, in call
with Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs) as p:
File "C:\Python367\lib\subprocess.py", line 709, in __init__
restore_signals, start_new_session)
File "C:\Python367\lib\subprocess.py", line 997, in _execute_child
startupinfo)
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified

I have replaced the first call that just created a directory with the os equivalent
to get past one call error only to be met by two more calls near end of the code.
I tried to replace those with popen but it didn't work.

Does anyone have an idea on what is going on here please?
