4. Skip all the above and install AUCTeX from devel-ELPA.  Every change
in main is transferred to that repo automatically and a new release is
triggered[1]; there is a lag of couple of hours, but that should be
acceptable.  You need something like this in your init file:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-to-list 'package-archives
             '("elpa-devel" . "https://elpa.gnu.org/devel/";) t)
(setq package-archive-priority
      '(("elpa" . 10)
        ("elpa-devel" . 5)))
(setq package-pinned-packages
      '((auctex . "elpa-devel")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

(Maybe you have to run 'M-x package-refresh-contents RET', I didn't test
the above).

Best, Arash
