fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

I have downloaded the source code of Rosetta version 3.14. When executing the command "./scons.py -j7 mode=release bin", the error shown in the picture occurred. How can I solve this problem? Thank you very much for your help.

How did you download the source code? Did you get it from https://rosettacommons.org/software/download/, or did you get it from the github repo?

The version from rosettacommons.org should be set up to be used as a "release" version, and shouldn't need any git connection.

However, the version on Github is set up to be cloned with git as a full repository. It's not intended to be used (and will not work) as a "snapshot" download of a single version -- if you're getting it from Github, you need to clone it as a git repo.
