What I did is:
git clone -b master git://git.sv.gnu.org/emacs.git
cd emacs
make install
(autogen.sh is automatically launched etc.)
and I get a:
In toplevel form:
cedet/semantic/bovine/make.el:31:1:Error: Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, semantic/bovine/make-by
make[3]: *** [cedet/semantic/bovine/make.elc] Error 1
make[2]: *** [compile-main] Error 2
make[1]: *** [lisp] Error 2
make: *** [install] Error 2
I'm on macOS 10.13, freshly installed.

Thank you Noam.
Maybe it's because I just woke up but I don't see a way to properly build emacs there.

Update to latest master and try again.

Funnily enough, dropping support completely for old-style backquotes
(which is what I have in my local tree, instead of signaling an error
when faced for an old-style backquote) doesn't bump into this
problem ;-)

Isn't what
git clone -b master git://git.sv.gnu.org/emacs.git <git://git.sv.gnu.org/emacs.git>
is supposed to do ?

Yes. But "latest" generally means something different every time you
do it. When you did it before, the "latest" commit was broken, and now
it's not (I hope).

I don't know what "now" is for you, but I've tried that a number of times in the past 24 hours and it still does not work.
I think it's Stephan who suggested a while back that when a build failed for no obvious reasons, just starting from scratch was the best way to fix the issue. So I just erased my emacs directory and did the git clone dance, but this time without success.
Last attempt was 10mn ago.

Ah, okay. It was reported that updating fixed an error which seems the
same as what you posted:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?users=emacs;bug=28760#11
Perhaps you have something else though?

Cloning from scratch is overkill, 'git clean -fx' will delete
everything not directly from git. That way you don't have to download
everything from the beginning.
Andreas' suggestion of 'make bootstrap' is *usually* enough, but not
in every case (see INSTALL.REPO for a couple of counter-examples).

Which revision are you at? 'git log -1'

git clean -xdf
I got hit by this once. Need to kill the directories as well.
We could add that to top-level Makefile.

Oh thanks, updated INSTALL.REPO.

I think it's a bit too dangerous for the Makefile.

You are supposed to use git pull.

Not when you've trashed your emacs directory if I understand correctly.
I usually do pulls, once a day, but then I got this error that I could not fix so I decided to restart from scratch and not I can't get a clone that works.

Restart from scratch means make bootstrap.

Ok, so is a clone of the repository supposed to give me code that properly builds, or not ?
