Why does the build.gradle (Project) disappear when I clone the project from Github in Android Studio 3.4.1?

I create a project, both build.gradle (Project) and build.gradle (Module) are listed in Android folder structure normally, look likes Old Image 1, then I sync the project to remote GitHub in Android Studio 3.4.1.

I clone the project from GitHub in another PC, I find that build.gradle (Project) disappear in Android folder structure in the another PC, look likes New Image 1, but I can find it in Project folder structure, look likes New Image 2. Why? BTW, the clone project can work well.

It seems that Github cause the problem, how can I fix it? Thanks!

To InsurgentPointerException:

This is project level build.gradle 

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {

    ext.kotlin_version = '1.3.40'
    ext.anko_version = '0.10.8'

    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()

    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.1'
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        google()
        jcenter()

    }
}

task clean(type: Delete) {
    delete rootProject.buildDir
}

Again to InsurgentPointerException:

You can test it by clone from

You can download the project source code of Android Studio at

So it seems like the Developers did that intentionally. IDK there probably used to be some setting for it but now I can't find it. This solution is a (rather lengthy) workaround.

  1. Close the target project
  2. Rename the root project folder
  3. Open the renamed project (Optional)
  4. See that there is build.gradle and app/build.gradle in the the Android View > Gradle Scripts (Optional)
  5. Close back out of the project (Optional)
  6. Do 1 -> 4 again but renaming back to the old project name.
