I am not sure I understand this. Here is what I do


** Clone 

$ git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/auctex.git 
$ cd auctex
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --with-emacs=/opt/emacs28/bin/emacs --prefix=/home/oub/ALLES/ 
--with-lispdir=/home/oub/emacs/site-lisp/packages/auctex-git --without-texmf-dir

$ make
$ make install

** pull the latest change

$ \rm -rf /home/oub/emacs/site-lisp/packages/auctex-git

$ make clean
$ make distclean
$ git pull 
$ ./configure --with-emacs=/opt/emacs28/bin/emacs --prefix=/home/oub/ALLES/ 
--with-lispdir=/home/oub/emacs/site-lisp/packages/auctex-git --without-texmf-dir

$ make
$ make install


You are saying that this would not result in the auctex pkg from the
latest git pull?
