make: *** [Makefile:511: all-recursive] Error 1
Possible reason:
=================================================
The error is due to a format-truncation warning being treated as an error during compilation. This occurs when you're trying to write more characters to a buffer than it can hold, which can lead to buffer overflow issues.
To fix this issue, you need to ensure that the buffer size used in the snprintf call is large enough to accommodate the string being formatted. In this case, it seems that the buffer size is set to 5 bytes, but the string being formatted (chip) might be longer than that.
Fix:
=================================================
Mentioning the length in line 1493 (main.cpp)
snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%.4s", chip);
