+
+## Summary of Changes
+
+I've implemented a fix for the issue where setup commands that include `git clone` into the current directory (`.`) fail when the directory already contains files (e.g., workflow configuration files, initialization files, etc.).
+
+### Changes Made:
+
+1. **Added `construct_git_clone_fallback()` function** in `/home/daytona/workspace/lib/crates/fabro-workflows/src/cli/run.rs`:
+   - Parses git clone commands to extract the repository URL and destination directory
+   - Converts `git clone <url> .` into `git init && git remote add origin <url> && git fetch origin`
+   - Preserves any additional commands in compound commands (e.g., `&& git checkout <commit>`)
+   - Only applies the fallback when cloning into the current directory
+
+2. **Added `quote_shell_arg()` helper function** to properly quote shell arguments using the existing `shell_quote` utility
+
+3. **Enhanced setup command execution** in `run_command()`:
+   - When a setup command fails with the "directory not empty" error from git clone
+   - Automatically retries using the fallback approach instead of reporting failure
+   - Logs the retry attempt for debugging
+
+4. **Added comprehensive tests** to verify:
+   - Simple git clone commands are converted correctly
+   - Compound commands with additional git/python operations are preserved
+   - Commands cloning to non-current directories are not affected
+   - Non-git-clone commands are not affected
+
+### How it works:
+
+When a workflow setup command tries to clone a repository into a non-empty directory:
+1. **Original command fails**: `git clone https://github.com/django/django.git . && git checkout 466920f && python -m pip install -e .`
+   - Error: "fatal: destination path '.' already exists and is not an empty directory."
+
+2. **Fallback command executes**: `git init && git remote add origin https://github.com/django/django.git && git fetch origin && git checkout 466920f && python -m pip install -e .`
+   - Initializes a new git repository in the current directory
+   - Adds the remote origin
+   - Fetches all branches and commits
+   - Continues with the original checkout and setup commands
+
+This approach matches the pattern already used in the SSH and exe.dev sandboxes, ensuring consistency across all sandbox providers.
