Same there: if the source (texi) file is newer than the target (info/pdf), it'll be rebuilt. Bye, Tassilo

+@subsubsection Using @AUCTeX{} from local Git repo
+
+With the techniques described above, it is also possible to use @AUCTeX{}
+directly from a local Git repository. Let's assume you have your Git
+repositories under
+@example
+~/development/
+@end example
+
+First, you have to fetch a copy of the @AUCTeX{} Git repository. In a
+shell, change directory to @samp{~/development/} and do:
+@example
+git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/auctex.git
+@end example
+
+Now change directory to @samp{~/development/auctex} and run
+@samp{./autogen.sh}. Next thing is to run @command{configure} like this:
+@example
+./configure --without-texmf-dir --with-lispdir=.
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+When finished, simply enter
+@example
+make
+@end example
+@noindent
+and you're finished. Note that the @samp{make install} step is not
+necessary.
+
+Now you have to tell Emacs about the plan. The following variables must
+be set in your init file because their normal values are only correct when
+@AUCTeX{} is installed:
+@lisp
+(setq TeX-data-directory "~/development/auctex"
+ TeX-lisp-directory TeX-data-directory)
+@end lisp
+
+@noindent
+The info files will be available with this:
+@lisp
+(eval-after-load 'info
+ '(add-to-list 'Info-additional-directory-list
+ "~/development/auctex/doc"))
+@end lisp
+
+@noindent
+Now you're ready to load @file{auctex.el} and @file{preview-latex.el} out
+of this directory:
+@lisp
+(load "~/development/auctex/auctex.el" nil t t)
+(load "~/development/auctex/preview-latex.el" nil t t)
+@end lisp

I think this is the most convenient way while developing: I can change files, load them and see if my change works. With an installation in parallel, it would be only hassle about `which file was actually loaded and which one did I change?' Best, Arash
Re: Loading AUCTeX out of Git repo
I think there's something wrong with commit f87d90f. I get a build doc error: install.texi:523: raising the section level of @subsubsection which is too low Makefile:167: recipe for target '../INSTALL' failed make[1]: *** [../INSTALL] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/redknight/git/auctex/doc' Makefile:236: recipe for target 'docs' failed make: *** [docs] Error 2 If I revert commit f87d90f74e6849cd3fc5f517c7dce8c58759573c then the error disappears.
