I'm browsins git code with Eclipse. I'm on a local branch called
"studio" based on master (last public commit e902e9b by Junio C
Hamano on Monday March 11 2019). I've built everything by changing:
CFLAGS = -g -Wall (removing -O2 to have smooth trace in debugging).
But the environment detects the following semantic errors (I made no
edits!!!):

I can debug without problems, but what if I should trece through one
of those errors?
How can I fix them?
This situation occurs in many projects in ECLIPSE, not only git. The
errors are likely coming from one of the error parsers that you have
enabled in your workspace. Look in the Project Properties or Workspace
Preferences under C/C++ Build/Settings in the Error Parsers tab for
your build configuration. You may have to turn off some of those.
There is also the C/C++ General/Code Analysis Preferences setting
where you might have to turn off the problematic errors. I have found
that this is a common situation for code that is imported into ECLIPSE
from other platforms, where the GNU error and analysis tools are
overly aggressive by default.

Good luck.

Thank you I tried to disable all of them, but they all remain. For example the
variable 'active_nr' is actually never declared. That's so strange. Hope to
solve this all soon. I'm freezed...
It is very likely in ECLIPSE either in workstation or project settings relating to error parsers (turn everything off). It still may be an error parser issue. One key thing... do not use -Wall. There are also settings about what to do in some error conditions configured in ECLIPSE. -Wall could be probably triggering a response from one of the error parsers. But the Semantic Error type is not normally from the compiler; rather, it is from ECLIPSE CDT pre-scanning the code. Anyway, check out other -W settings to disable all warnings as a start. If you are building in Cygwin or Mingw, you probably can ignore the ECLIPSE errors, especially if git actually built. If you are trying to mix a managed build and a non-managed build in the same project, you are going to be out of luck.
