Cant clone foxy branch

[ravi-kumaaar]

Hi! My skills in ROS isn't that good, but I cant "git clone" the code for "foxy devel". Im running ubuntu 20.04 foxy and when i git clone it in my src folder and colcon build i get this error.

Am i doing something wrong or forgot to do something?

Would like to add also that i had to download it manually because when i chose foxy devel git clone link it had the catkin build tool, not ament cmake.

I'd suggest to clean the workspace and try again.

Also after you git clone, you should change the branch using git checkout foxy-devel inside the cloned directory, I suggest you do some git tutorials to avoid encountering these issues in the future.

Finally, you can also apt-get install ros-foxy-pmb2-description and use the released packages if you wish.

We have some work in progress tutorial documentation here: https://pal-robotics.github.io/pmb2_tutorials_doc/
