Cloning fails on Windows: invalid file path in Lectures folder #1

Hello Dear Pytopia 👋

I tried to clone the repository on Windows, but the checkout fails due to an invalid file path. The problem is caused by this folder:

Lectures/11 Capstone Project: Building a Full-featured AI Agent/.gitkeep

On Windows, the character : is not allowed in file or folder names. Because of this, the command:

git clone https://github.com/pytopia/Agentic-AI.git

results in:

error: invalid path 'Lectures/11 Capstone Project: Building a Full-featured AI Agent/.gitkeep'
fatal: unable to checkout working tree

Suggested fix

Rename the folder to avoid the : character (e.g., 11_Capstone_Project), or

Remove the problematic .gitkeep file.

This will make the repository fully cloneable on Windows.

Thanks! 🙏
