What's the derivative of deformation gradient F w.r.t cauchy green tensor C, where C=F'F and ' denotes the transpose?

Are you trying to find the derivative of the CG tensor with respect to time in terms of the time derivatives of the deformation gradient tensor and its transpose?

no, but of F w.r.t C
