How can i resolve my build error about maven?

I've tried to build a project with Maven. In the folder where there's pom.xml file I've launched git bash and used "mvn compile" command but I got a build failure with following message:

Add a configuration section to your maven-compiler-plugin in your pom.xml file and set source and target to eg. 1.8.

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <configuration>
                <source>1.8</source>
                <target>1.8</target>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>
