Trouble cloning repo from TFS2013

I am trying to migrate/convert a single branch from TFS2013 to local git repo, while preserving the change history.

I can execute git-tfs list-remote-branches http://tfsserv:8080/tfs/defaultcollection, and see the repo I'm after, but when I attempt to execute git-tfs clone http://tfsserv:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection/Brand%20It/Main/ $/BrandIt/Main, where tfsserv is my TFS server, Brand It is the TFS project and Main is the branch I'm after, I get the following error:

Initialized empty Git repository in C:/Users/bellhousem/Desktop/GitTfs-0.27.0/Main/.git/

TF31002: Unable to connect to this Team Foundation Server: http://tfsserv:8080/tfs/defaultcollection/Brand It/Main/.
Team Foundation Server Url: http://tfsserv:8080/tfs/defaultcollection/Brand It/Main/.

Possible reasons for failure include:
- The name, port number, or protocol for the Team Foundation Server is incorrect.
- The Team Foundation Server is offline.
- The password has expired or is incorrect.

Technical information (for administrator):
The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.
The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.
All the logs could be found in the log file: C:\Users\myname\AppData\Local\git-tfs\git-tfs_log.txt

As far as I can see here or here, I think I'm using the right command. Does anyone have an idea what I might be doing wrong?

You specified the incorrect Team Foundation Server URL, it should be the collection URL.

It should not be "http://tfsserv:8080/tfs/defaultcollection/Brand It/Main/"

Just trying below command:

git tfs clone http://tfsserv:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection $/BrandIt/Main
