Git clone Windows 10 invalid argument

I'm cloning a git repository on Windows 10 but there's a directory which name contains a colon. Both sourcetree and git command line shows me the same error: invalid argument. I tried on linux and I could clone it normally, however I need to do it on Windows. There's not an option renaming the directory. There's any way to clone the repo on Windows 10?

Thanks in advance.

After reading everywhere, I'm afraid that is not possible to clone a git repository on Windows if a directory or a file has a colon in its name. It's a Windows limitation.

That's frustrating
