In the directory that contains the git checkout execute: git clean -f -d -x That ensures that you are using a pristine source directory. Then make If that fails, then the build is broken due to some erroneous change made by the developers. Wait one day or two, "git pull" again, repeat the build process. If the build is still broken, on Emacs do M-x report-emacs-bug including details about your setup (compiler, library versions, etc) and the output of the build at the failure point. It is possible to check out a previous vesion (one day ago, for instance) instead of waiting for a fix upstream, but that requires and slightly more complicated git usage.
