HI,

Getting bellow error while building any source.

Tried on Bazel versions:
0.13.0
0.13.1
0.14.0
0.14.1

I need to build Tensorflow source bu no luck.
Any idea what causes this error?

Thanks

It appears to me that this is an issue to be reported on the Tensorflow repo (that's where the git_configure.bzl is implemented). And it looks like a problem is with your python binary, so you can start debugging there:

/home/automator/.cache/bazel/_bazel_automator/1376e9d23e5a9ca94a937b0adecd0263/external/local_config_git/home/automator/Documents/Anaconda/anaconda3/bin/python" (in directory "/home/automator/.cache/bazel/_bazel_automator/1376e9d23e5a9ca94a937b0adecd0263/external/local_config_git"): error=2, No such file or directory

I'll close this issue now, please reopen if you believe this is bazel issue.

As a note for anyone arriving via Google search, I was able to fix a similar error by installing the 'future' pip package:

pip install future

[wangyunxiaa]

installing
i have installed future by pip install future
but always has the error.
my env is windows10, TFS=1.13,bazel=0.20.0, VS=1.5, I could bazel build tensorflow successfuly,but can not build TFS, the error is `ERROR: C:/users/wangyunxia/_bazel_wangyunxia/5aybp25i/external/org_tensorflow/tensorflow/core/BUILD:2515:1: no such package '@local_config_git//': Traceback (most recent call last):
