I'm trying to build chromium on my external drive, because I don't have enough space on my computer. I do everything in accordance with the instructions: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/refs/heads/main/docs/windows_build_instructions.md
The following errors appear during the run of the gclient
command:
D:\>gclient
error: could not write config file D:/depot_tools/bootstrap-2@3_8_10_chromium_20_bin/git/etc/gitconfig: File exists
Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks in advance for your reply!
