I cannot in this git version invoke C-h f as it fails each time.
C-h f for find-file says: help-fns--first-release: Search failed: "

Before seeing this email I have done git fsck and anything to reset
it. Before that I was doing patch of Stefen for text scaling the
tabulated-list-mode.
As I have done patch incorrectly or maybe repeated it first time, this
happened. Problem is probably not related to that patch.
I have git clone --depth 1 the latest git and built Emacs again. Now is all
fine and working, closing this bug.
