I apologise if this doesn't belong in this list and for my inexperience. I am trying to clone the gitian-builder repository to test out the deterministic builds, but I'm running into an issue: "warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout." It creates the gitian-builder directory and a .git directory within, but it is otherwise empty. The command being run is: "git clone https://git.torproject.org/builders/gitian-builder.git" Should I be running a different command?

You need to check out the tor-browser-builder-2 branch:
git clone -b tor-browser-builder-2 https://git.torproject.org/builders/gitian-builder.git
If you check out /builders/tor-browser-bundle.git first, and run "make" in the gitian directory, it will tell you all the things you need to install (it's where I copied that command from).
