Description
Can't install Mini-NDN due to the following issue.
.../ndn-src/mini-ndn/dl/mininet-wifi ../ndn-src/mini-ndn/dl/mininet-wifi
fatal: unsafe repository ('../ndn-src/mini-ndn/dl/mininet-wifi' is owned by someone else)
To add an exception for this directory, call:
git config --global --add safe.directory ../ndn-src/mini-ndn/dl/mininet-wifi
running git config --global --add safe.directory ../ndn-src/mini-ndn/dl/mininet-wifi this command doesn't solves the problem.

git config --global --add safe.directory ../ndn-src/mini-ndn/dl/mininet-wifithis command doesn't solves the problem.
A quick fix,
sudo git config --global --add safe.directory '*' -- if you trust every folder.
else
sudo git config --global --add safe.directory /folder/name

What git command triggers the error? I suppose it's being run as the root user? Why?
