from $LILYPOND_GIT using an 'out of tree build' mkdir build ./autogen.sh --noconfigure cd build ../configure --disable-optimising make make doc The --disable-optimising gives a more robust set of test when using 'make'. creating a build dir inside $LILYPOND_GIT has the advantage of just being able to nuke it if you get into problems.
