Ah, thank you for pointing me to README.git file. I looked only at README and 
that pointed me to INSTALL, which didn't exist.
I honestly didn't think to look for a tarball to download - I figured git would 
be the only way to get the source code.
Thanks,

You could normally just install the tool the Ubuntu package.  Or build 
from a tarball.  This is a very stable package; so there's really not 
much to be gained by installing from git.

Those are generated files, so they're not in git.  As explained in

    README.git.
