I am trying to create a personal dashboard on kubernetes, am trying to create to clone an external repository from git, but, am getting this error, error: error converting YAML to JSON: yaml: line 378: mapping values are not allowed in this context
now if you want to have a kubernet dashboard than you have to type kubectl create -f https://rawgit.com/kubernetes/dashboard/master/src/deploy/kubernetes-dashboard.yaml
is it possible to replace kubernetes dashboard by our own dashboard by cloning an external git repository?

Yes, most certainly it is.
You have to pay attention to few things:
Cloning repository from Dashboard Git (git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard.git) and then simply running src/deploy/recommended/kubernetes-dashboard.yaml included within won't help you. Mentioned manifest file uses pregenerated image (at this moment it is image: k8s.gcr.io/kubernetes-dashboard-amd64:v1.8.3). If you simply run it from local repository you'll pull external image which is not your desire...
You have to make changes and then (with included Dockerfile) you need to build target kubernetes-dashboard image. Finally you have to reference such an image in your local kubernetes-dashboard.yaml file in order to incorporate your changes. You can do it with local docker repository or external, public or private, name your poison...
You are advised to check developer getting started reference from repository for more details, especially related to installation of prerequisites and running of tests.
