While 'master' branch builds on debian unstable, I get the following error
while building 'emacs-25' branch. I did 'git checkout emacs-25' then 'make':

...
checking that generated files are newer than configure... done
configure: creating ./config.status
cd . && /bin/bash /home/sewi/sources/emacs/build-aux/missing autoheader
rm -f src/stamp-h.in
echo timestamp > src/stamp-h.in
cd . && /bin/bash /home/sewi/sources/emacs/build-aux/missing automake-1.15
--gnu -a -c lib/Makefile
make: *** No rule to make target 'test/Makefile.in', needed by 'Makefile'. 
Stop.

After switching branches you need to run at least ./config.status before
you can run make.

You need to run autogen.sh and then re-run configure, I think.  The
directory structure has changed on master.

I can't reproduce this. I would guess that you switched in place from a
configured master branch to emacs-25, with stale Makefiles left behind
from master. You'll need to do some semi-manual clean-up.
Perhaps you can simply re-run configure.

Thank you to all who replied. In fact I was not aware of additional steps
after switching branches.
I confirm that either 'config.status' or 'autogen.sh; configure' builds
emacs-25 branch correctly.
