I followed the readme file present here. Could anyone please help in resolving the issue?

Answer

The README.md for mutect instructs to git reset --hard 3.1 in the gatk-protected folder. I undid this action, which, my guess is, resulted in the use of the latest GATK-protected version. So, after I undid that reset command using git reflog, the procedure resumed and the mutect jar file was also successfully built.
