Hmm, build-aux/gitlog-to-auctexlog contains[1]:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# If this is not a Git repository, just generate an empty ChangeLog.
test -d .git || {
  >"$output"
  exit
}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Maybe Uwe has a .git directory in his setup, but it isn't a real .git
directory as Git would expect?
