@port19 sorry for the late reply, due to a problem with my mail filters. The main problem with Emacs' git repository is that, for some reason unknown to me, the maintainers have not implemented regular garbage collection.
You can reduce the size of your repository by running git gc --aggressive once you create your local copy and once in a full moon afterwards.
@FabioLolix I see, how unfortunate. Here are some links to official sources:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/User:Apg#makepkg:_shallow_git_clones https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2190614
@port19 that is not welcome on the AUR (it has been discussed multiple times but don't remember where)
With the repo being as huge as it is, would it be appropiate to clone with --depth 1 to drastically speed up install time?
It seems that tree-sitter integration is broken on the latest version (enabling rust-ts-mode crashed emacs with a stack smashing error). The version I rolled back to with success was 22.2-1. Rebuilding the latest emacs-git with the latest tree-sitter version (22.6) did not fix my problem.
@lyra. You forgot to install the metapackage base-devel.
I've encountered an error:
configure: error: You do not seem to have makeinfo >= 4.13, and your
source tree does not seem to have pre-built manuals in the 'info' directory.
And it resolved with installing core/texinfo package. Maybe it needs to be added into Dependencies?
@utkarsh don't pay attention. Upstream mistakenly hardcoded its configuration scripts to look for a very old version of sysprof. The correct one required by glib2 and gtk is pulled in as an implicit dependency.
In other words, upstream bugs, complains to upstream. :-)
Hi @toropisco,
I'm getting the following warnings when building the package:
cc1: warning: /usr/include/sysprof-4: No such file or directory [-Wmissing-include-dirs]
Any guesses?
Yes, sir.

This PKGBUILD is a work in progress. If you find PACKAGING bugs, please let me know ASAP.
Upstream bugs are to be reported upstream. Check out the emacs-devel archives to confirm if this is an already known bug. In fact... Why are you not subscribed to
emacs-devel?. Also check theemacs-bug-trackerarchives.Reporting bugs: Write to the Emacs Bug Tracker and report it there. Or, better yet, use the
debbugsclient included with the text editor. You will find instructions at https://debbugs.gnu.org/. Good luck!If you confirm it is a packaging bug, you are welcome to report it here.
Yaourt and other automated tools users BEWARE! This PKGBUILD is written with hand updating in mind and I won't fix bugs arising from such use. Besides, cloning the same repository time and time again from a non-profit such as the GNU Project/FSF gives out a very low image of you.
