How to convert a downloaded repo into a git repo?

Due to some server issues resulting into the error: "aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote side.", I am not able to clone the repo. As per online research, I found that my server does not have enough RAM to process heavy memory usage. The repo size is 400mb.

Although, I have downloaded the code by clicking the latest commit > Browse code > Download as zip.

Is there a way to init this downloaded folder as git repo? So, that I can push the code?
