Thanks for reporting it over there.

I see the issue has been fixed, with commit ce457d62.

(the bug-gnulib thread is at
  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2014-03/msg00019.html
)

Indeed, git-log-fix was added to the description of the module
gitlog-to-changelog, but not to the repository itself.  I'll report
that to bug-gnulib.

Okay, thanks, that got me going in the right direction.

I did a git pull in the paxutils subdirectory and ran bootstrap again, but
then when I tried to run configure I got some error that caused it to
abort.  Unfortunately I don't seem to have the exact error message any
more, but it mentioned something about gl__XXX, and so I figured I
also needed to update gnulib.

So I did a git pull in the gnulib subdirectory, then tried to run
bootstrap again... and this time the bootstrap script errored out
because gnulib/build-aux/git-log-fix could not be found.  (It was trying
to create a symlink from build-aux/ over to that file in
gnulib/build-aux, if I remember correctly.)

I see that gnulib commit 1589a8a (by Jim Meyering on Mar 13) edited
modules/gitlog-to-changelog to mention build-aux/git-log-fix in the
Files: list, but I don't see the actual git-log-fix file in the
repository anywhere

For now, I just created an empty gnulib/build-aux/git-log-fix file
(figured that it probably wasn't actually used by tar anyway), and
after that bootstrap, configure, and a tar build  were able to complete
successfully.

It is provided by paxutils, as well as rmt.c itself.  To make it work,
you should update your paxutils tree (it should be at commit da310fec)
and run bootstrap.
