Hi, I noticed that the instructions on https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/G etting-Started-Installing-Git don't work without dh-autoreconf installed on an apt-get system which isn't listed on that site. Can you fix that or tell me whom to tell about this? The website doesn't offer contact information. Just tried this on a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 installation.
