So you copied the file into the correct directory, right? Did you call 'git commit'? If not, please copy the manifest into the directory, and then enter git commit -a on the terminal within the directory. It will ask for a commit message; just enter something. If you then do steps 3 and 4 then, it should pull the change. Basically, you need to tell git that you modified a file. I forgot/omitted that in the instructions, because I do this automatically. Sorry about that. I still don't think it will build, though. If nothing else, this thread will be helpful for writing the FAQ.
