Can we start over? I am trying to do a JDK build using make. It reports an error like this: Inconsistent revision control: 17-24-55/ is missing .git directory at which point the build is aborted. I’d like to know what this message means, so that I can fix the problem or avoid it in the future

The makefile is trying to locate your local repositories and record the state of the workspace. It will only do so if it finds what looks like .git repositories and a git executable to run. If not, it will just skip this. You aren't giving us much to work on here, but the error message looks to

That much is obvious :-) As the script appears to run git status, I am going to take a guess that it is complaining because I have modified or untracked files in the repo. Can someone confirm that? On the other hand, I don’t see why modified or untracked files should prevent building during dev
