Problem while fetching the sources of ADI Yocto Linux Release 3.0.0

Ok, I figured it out. As I am using clean Ubuntu Install I need to set my git identity using:
$ git config --global user.name "John Doe"
$ git config --global user.email johndoe@example.com

I am also using python3.

Hi,

I could see the error shows there is no python in the system, It seems you might have missed the "Installing Required Packages" host requirement section. https://wiki.analog.com/resources/tools-software/linuxdsp/docs/quickstartguide/quickstart_sc584_3_0_0

```

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install -y gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib build-essential chrpath socat libsdl1.2-dev xterm u-boot-tools openssl curl tftpd-hpa python3 zstd liblz4-tool
```

If the above steps were good, I recommend to try re-install ubuntu again to give it a try, might be issue in installing the OS packages

As I am using fresh Ubuntu install so It turned out that it is mandatory to set identity after git install:

$ git config --global user.name "John Doe"
$ git config --global user.email johndoe@example.com

Also installing python3 is not sufficient. You need to install python-is-python3 or configure an alias by adding alias python='python3' to ~/.bashrc .
After this changes everything works fine.
