nvcc fatal : Unknown option '-generate-dependencies-with-compile'

I am using a conda to manage my environment. I got the following error:

Unfortunately, this library does not appear to be compatible with newer versions of CUDA (>9). I have seen the same error as you using CUDA 10 and 11, but not with 9. There are several projects that depend on torch-mesh-isect and, unfortunately, they cannot be used because they have CUDA 10 dependencies. Hopefully, the author of this library will update for compatibility with the newer libraries.
