I'm still new to Git so I have no idea what I'm doing. May I know if there's a way for me to see that folder again or delete it permanently?

You can delete directories and their contents from the Terminal using rm -R directoryname Because it is a git repo, you probably would want to add -f to suppress warnings because commits are stored as write-protected files if I remember correctly. However, be very careful when dealing with files on the command line because it’s possible to delete things you didn’t want to. You could also make sure this is the repository that you downloaded by ls directoryname to see the contents before deleting it. It’s possible that the reason that you can’t see this file in Finder is because it somehow got hidden. To (possibly) reverse this, you can use Shift-Command-. (in a finder window in the folder that it was cloned into) to show hidden files.
