You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:
git checkout -b <new-branch-name>

Make sure to run
git checkout v4.9.0
. That is, check outv4.9.0
, notv4.7
.Watchman is available in Debian sid and Ubuntu 20.04 and can be installed with:
Watchman version 4.7.0 isn't compatible with GCC 7.x, as reported here:
https://github.com/facebook/watchman/issues/467
Note, Ubuntu 18.04 ships with GCC 7.3.
Try building the latest version, v4.9.0, in which the issue is fixed:
https://github.com/facebook/watchman/releases/tag/v4.9.0
Alternatively, use an earlier GCC version for building Watchman, such as 5.4.
Follow all these steps
use this command to check you are in branch or master git branch if the console print like below output skip this commmand
git checkout v4.9.0
if you are in master the console print like this
After this process use all these commands
This worked fine for me on Ubuntu 22.04 from @anuradha-weeraman - https://askubuntu.com/a/1205558/
sudo apt install watchman

While following accepted answer on Ubuntu(18.04 & 20.04), I experienced the following error:
After some investigation I was able to fix this issue by passing --enable-lenient to ./configure to disable promoting warnings to errors.
The complete modified instructions is provided below:
