The directory you're referring to is a temporary directory that's present only until the initial cloning is completed. I don't see why you would get that error so please provide more details like which OS you're running, which exact commands you ran and what the full output was.

Thank for your help @Henrik Kjellander. I am follow these two websites

1. https://webrtc.org/native-code/development/prerequisite-sw/

2. https://webrtc.org/native-code/ios/

to install the Depot tools and Webrtc.

For more details, my current Mac OS is 10.11.6. And I have successfully download the depot tools but the Webrtc code. Here is the terminal.

Your current directory appears to already contain, or be part of,

a checkout. "fetch" is used only to get new checkouts. Use

"gclient sync" to update existing checkouts.

Fetch also does not yet deal with partial checkouts, so if fetch

failed, delete the checkout and start over (crbug.com/230691).

you have a partial checkout,

you need to delete all the content (including the two .gclient* files) and start again from scratch (fetch webrtc)

Sure no problem.

from within webrtc_build/ please run

rm -fR *

check that the .gclient* files (there are 2) are not there by running:

ls -la

the expected result is "." and ".." only.

once this is done, you can try to fetch again.

You're trying to update a really old checkout, that was based on Subversion.

Please create a new checkout from scratch according to the instructions on webrtc.org (in another directory).
