What is an incremental clone?

After updating the directory, I tried to do an incremental build and got the 
strange message.

So you did mean "incremental build".

After that, I tried doing a full build, reconfiguring, etc., but nothing helped.

Now that you know that a build tool is involved, can you help me figure out 
what the problem is?

I think Erik already addressed that.

It would be very unlikely for CCC to fail to correctly clone the directory.
It would be helpful to know what the build tool is complaining about with that

Wasn't apparent any build tool was involved. You stated:

like this:

I presume you actually meant "incremental build".

The initial clone is fine.

Inconsistent revision control: 17-24-55/ is missing .git directory
What is this about?
Is there an easy way to fix this problem?

This isn't really a build issue. I can only suggest that you check that the 
copy you made actually copied across all hidden directories, e.g. .git, as well.
