I am new to DVC and am trying to work my way through the “Getting Started Tutorial” on macOS Sonoma 14.6.1 and python 3.10.13.

I created a project fold and initialized git.

I installed DVC and initialized it.

I had to set up SSL according to the following:  
pip3 install --upgrade certifi  
export SSL\_CERT\_FILE=$(python -m certifi)

I am now attempting to download the get-started/data.xml from iterative and getting an error:

(the data folder exists)

dvc get [GitHub - iterative/dataset-registry: Dataset registry DVC project](https://github.com/iterative/dataset-registry) get-started/data.xml -o data/data.xml  
ERROR: unexpected error - [Errno 2] No storage files available: ‘get-started/data.xml’

Hi, can you please share the verbose error message?

Please try adding `-v` to the command.

I’ve attached a screenshot as you site does not like text with more than 2 links.
