That is what I have in mind.

Bison itself does not have any of that in the archive, I think. One does:

# Getting branch 'maint' form archive:
git clone -b maint https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/bison.git

# Then, cf. file README-hacking:
cd bison/

git submodule update --init

./bootstrap
./configure
make

make check
git diff
