+# Common Mistake 1
+
+In case the students get an unexpected error, they should check to see if
+both Unikraft and the used libraries are on the `staging` branch.
+
+In order to check
+this, one must go in the directory where Unikraft/the libraries are located
+and check the branch using `git branch`.
+
+An undesired output could look like `((HEAD detached at RELEASE-0.5))`.
+We can correct this by moving to the staging branch with `git checkout staging`.
