And anyone is free to use the standard set of tools, which is know to
work and used daily by dozens to hundreds of developers.

Erik responded to a different question. I’ve gotten no closer to
figuring out this problem.
Erik responded to exactly your question.
Feel free to be helpful, if you can.
I don’t think it is helpful to nitpick my words.
When your words do not make it clear what exactly it is you are
reporting then they need to be clarified. "clone" is a git operation
not a build one.

No, I meant incremental clone.
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

It would be helpful to know what the build tool is complaining
about with that message.
Wasn't apparent any build tool was involved. You stated:
After an incremental clone of the directory tree, I get
mysterious messages like this:
I presume you actually meant "incremental build".

I have been trying to use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a copy of
an active jdk repo on another macOS machine for the purpose of
running tests.
The initial clone is fine.
After an incremental clone of the directory tree, I get
mysterious messages like this:
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.
Cheers,
