thank you werner!
I just tried to do `git pull` from the http://repo.or.cz/ttfautohint.git repository and I cannot find the current v1.8.2 tag.
Did you forgot to push it maybe?

http://freetype.org/ttfautohint

This project provides a library which takes a TrueType font as the input,
remove its bytecode instructions (if any), and return a new font where all
glyphs are bytecode hinted using the information given by FreeType's
autohinting module.  The idea is to provide the excellent quality of the
autohinter on platforms which don't use FreeType.

The library has a single API function, `TTF_autohint'; see
`lib/ttfautohint.h' for a detailed description.  Note that the library
itself won't get installed currently.

A command-line interface to the library is the `ttfautohint' program; after
compilation and installation, say

  ttfautohint --help

for usage information, or say

  man ttfautohint

to read its manual page.

A GUI to the library is `ttfautohintGUI'; it uses the Qt4 framework.  The
compilation of this application can be disabled with the `--without-qt'
configuration option.

Version 1.8.2 (2018-Jul-24)
---------------------------

  * Support for Georgian Mtavruli.

  * Bug fix: Compilation of ttfautohintGUI with homebrew on the Mac works
    again.

  * Bug fix: Point deltas didn't work for composite glyphs.
