Can't Fix Broken Git installation on Ubuntu

I was trying to install git on ubuntu, but there is an error when I try to install or fix broken git installation. This is the error:

cp: cannot stat '/usr/lib/git-core/git': No such file or directory  dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/git_1%3a2.17.1-1ubuntu0.8_amd64.deb (--unpack):   new git package pre-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1  dpkg-query: warning: files list file for package 'git' missing; assuming package has no files currently installed  dpkg-query: warning: files list file for package 'git' missing; assuming package has no files currently installed  Errors were encountered while processing:   /var/cache/apt/archives/git_1%3a2.17.1-1ubuntu0.8_amd64.deb  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)  

I tried other possibles solutions, I will list here:

• apt --fix-broken install. Error: The same problem as above.
• apt purge git. Show me to make an apt fix broken install
• sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/git_1%3a2.17.1-1ubuntu0.8_amd64.deb. Error: dpkg-query: warning: files list file for package 'git' missing; assuming package has no files currently installed
• I tried to remove all files inside dpkg/updates, apt/lists, apt/*.bin, and clen apt-get, to try to force the installation, but again the same error above.

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/updates/*  sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*  sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin  sudo apt-get clean  sudo apt-get autoremove  sudo apt-get update  sudo dpkg --configure -a  sudo apt-get install -f  

• I tryed to remove the git .deb file from /var/cache/apt/archives and install git again, but doesn't work.
