This is one reason why you can't compile the current main branch. This
doesn't explain the error:
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
I suspect this has something to do with your Git-Mercurial
setup/workflow. But let sort things out one after the other, Ok?

My understanding is that you're sticking to that Emacs 29.0.50 version
because of your BBDB setup. If so, you can stick with that and wait
until we have a solution for older Emacs as well. AUCTeX claims to
support Emacs≥27, so we can't only stay with `loaddefs-generate-batch'.
So in short, be a little patient :-)

Side note: I recommend you try to resolve this situation somehow. Emacs
current release is 29.3. Sitting on an old dev-version is not really
satisfactory, IMHO.
