Dear all, I work on a Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS machine with Linux Mint installed. My version of git is 2.36.1.
I am trying to install a git repository, complexespp <https://github.com/bio-phys/complexespp/tree/main/complexes%2B%2B>, which requires the external repository yaml_cpp <https://github.com/jbeder/yaml-cpp>. While running the last step of installation of complexespp sudo make install I face the following problem: [ 1%] Performing update step for 'yaml_cpp_project' CMake Error at /home/davide/Desktop/complexespp/complexes++/build-gen/yaml_cpp_project-prefix/tmp/yaml_cpp_project-gitupdate.cmake:25 (message): Failed to get the hash for HEAD: fatal: unsafe repository ('/home/davide/Desktop/complexespp/complexes++/build-gen/yaml_cpp_project-prefix/src/yaml_cpp_project' is owned by someone else) To add an exception for this directory, call: git config --global --add safe.directory /home/davide/Desktop/complexespp/complexes++/build-gen/yaml_cpp_project-prefix/src/yaml_cpp_project make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/yaml_cpp_project.dir/build.make:118: yaml_cpp_project-prefix/src/yaml_cpp_project-stamp/yaml_cpp_project-update] Error 1 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:418: CMakeFiles/yaml_cpp_project.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:146: all] Error 2 I ran the advised line of code and the path added to ~/.gitconfig as [safe], but the sudo command goes on returning the same error (even if I set "*" as safe). Do you have any idea about how to fix it? Thanks a lot in advance -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
