I installed Msys2
then used pacman -S git patch unzip
set path as C:\msys64\usr\bin\bash.exe for BAZEL_SH
I installed Visual C++ Build Tools 2015
git clone https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow.git
cd tensorflow
git checkout r1.9
python ./configure.py
bazel build --config=opt //tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package

[harsh204016]

while running the command git checkout branchname
which branchname I have to used in this command??

[mihaimaruseac]

Where did you get the command from? There is some context which is missing in your question above

[harsh204016]

I am following the commands given on this

Build from source on Windows
https://www.tensorflow.org/install/source_windows

[mihaimaruseac]

Quoting from there

git clone https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow.git
cd tensorflow

The repo defaults to the master development branch. You can also checkout a release branch to build:

git checkout branch_name  # r1.9, r1.10, etc.

You can use master (getting you the latest code) or the release branch corresponding to the TF version you want to build from source (e.g., r1.13 for 1.13.* series)

[harsh204016]

Now when I am running this command
python ./configure.py

I am getting this error:

(base) C:\Users\DELL\tensorflow>python ./configure.py
python: can't open file './configure.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

[mihaimaruseac]

Do you have configure.py in that directory? Try dir/ls

[harsh204016]

Yes,In tensorflow folder configure file is present but not in .py extension.

[mihaimaruseac]

That's strange. It is supposed to exist in both formats as configure just calls configure.py:

tensorflow/configure

Line 12 in 377a4df

"$PYTHON_BIN_PATH" "${CONFIGURE_DIR}/configure.py" "$@"

[mihaimaruseac]

Most likely you didn't get a full clone of the repository, or accidentally removed files. I suggest trying again from scratch, from a new fresh clone
