[Development] Failed to run configure.bat in qt/qt5 repository on Windows?

Hello, Alexey.
Thanks for your reply. However, even though I run *'git clean -xdf'* before
*'..\configure.bat'*,
the error still showed up. The following commands are what I tried:

   1. *rmdir /s/q build*
   2. *git status*
   3. *git clean -xdf*
   4. *git submodule update --recursive*
   5. *mkdir build && **chdir build*
   6. *..\configure.bat*

What happened?
You can see the attachment with the full log:

> Hi Haowei Hsu,
> you cloned the full Qt repo recursively at first step, so some modules

> you checked out v 6.5.2 those repos remain on file system as free-floating
> sources without version control.
> Calling 'git clean -xdf' as step 5b should remove those leftovers.

> The error that you see means that some modules have incompatible version,
> so the root cause of this behavior I described above.
