I am trying to do a JDK build using make.<br>
<br>
It reports an error like this: Inconsistent revision control: 17-24-55/ is missing .git directory<br>
<br>
at which point the build is aborted.<br>
<br>
I’d like to know what this message means, so that I can fix the problem or avoid it in the future.<br>
<br>
What is 17-24-55?</blockquote><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">It is a directory. Please check which files are within.

If there is a missing .git directory, where would it be?<br>
<br>
The top level .git directory is present.<br>
<br>
If I do “git status” it tells me things that I expect, listing untracked files and changes not staged for commit.<br>
<br>
It does not complain about the repo being broken in any way.<br>
