I think CONTRIBUTE should mention, right after saying to run autogen.sh, that the above requires Git to be installed.
autogen.sh is not supposed to require Git, so let's fix autogen.sh instead.
'build-aux/git-hooks/commit-msg' -> '.git/hooks/commit-msg' cp: cannot create regular file '.git/hooks/commit-msg': No such file or directory ERROR: Job failed: exit code 1 #+end_src So it looks like it assumes that `.git/hooks' exists. I don't know why that's not true in the GitLab checkout.
I don't know why either. I wonder what other compatibility mines remain unexploded in the GitLab field? Anyway, I installed the attached, which should work around this particular problem without having to complicate the configuration instructions.
