Hi, Emacs.
In etc/DEBUG is written:
When you debug Emacs with GDB, you should start it in the directory
where the executable was made (the 'src' directory in the Emacs source
tree). That directory has a .gdbinit file that defines various
"user-defined" commands for debugging Emacs.
It is unclear to me whether the "it" that should be starting in src is
Emacs or gdb itself. I think that "it" should be replaced by either
"Emacs" or "GDB".
