I think I might have misunderstood your post. If you did enter the command in 'git bash' then I'm afraid I don't know why it isn't working, except to say it seems you must be issuing the command in the wrong directory. Perhaps that is another unfamiliar thing about *nix? Try typing the command 'ls' - it should list all the files in the current directory - is qbld.sh there?
