The problem I described in https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2018-03/msg00025.html means that running "./bootstrap" after "make distclean" currently results in the tree appearing to be dirty. Either of the fixes I suggested there would deal with that. In the meantime, "git checkout -- doc/automake_migration_tests.txt" after "make distclean" should work around it. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org]
