The page
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorBrowser/Hacking#WaystoBuildTorBrowser
for building just the browser has a couple of problems.
The first is that the origin/Master branch doesn't build using those
instructions. The 'mach configure' line's first option throws an error.
Remove that option and you get ValueError in
build/moz.configure/init.configure split-triplet.
I went to branch tor-browser-68.5.0esr-9.5-1 and these went away. The
page should point people to either 'oldest branch that builds' or just say
use the latest if you're going to hack.
With this version, the steps are good except it misses one. It says that
tor-launcher needs to be in browser/extensions. It doesn't say that
torbutton needs to be in toolkit/torproject.
I know they are small, but they might save someone else some time.
