I think you are a bit confused regarding terminologies. You do not
have to delete directories, but branches instead.

Let's try do understand what git checkout is doing.

$ git checkout -b 4.8 origin/4.8

The line above will create a local copy of origin/4.8 and will call it
4.8 only. The problem is that you already have a 4.8 branch, so you
can't create a new one with the same name.

A quick fix would be to delete the copy you already have. Notice that
this isn't the same thing as deleting a folder on your file system,
that's a git operation and only git can do that. At the project's
folder try this:

$ git checkout master
$ git branch -d 4.8

Now run kdersc-build again.
