How to fix already checked out repository is better to mention, imho,
because a broken checked out repostitory is what most people would start
with. They clone the repo first and only then read the instructions.
`git clone --config ...' is probaly should be mentioned too, but in
http://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=emacs and not INSTALL. And even if we
mention it there, someone would probably still just copypaste the basic
instruction and end up with a broken repo.
