Hi,

I'm having trouble building v0.5.1 native_client/generate_trie.

My goal is to create trie file for my model. So, as I see I need to run
the generate_trie command from created our own binary from this link
slash -- slash >
https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech/blob/master/native_client/README.md

./generate_trie .../data/alphabet.txt /tmp/lm.binary /tmp/trie

I am following the steps:

git clone https://github.com/mozilla/tensorflow.git
git checkout origin/r1.13
./configure
ln -s ../DeepSpeech0.5.1/native_client ./ (I am using DeepSpeech 0.5.1)
bazel build --workspace_status_command='bash native_client/bazel_workspace_status_cmd.sh' --config=monolithic -c opt --copt=-O3 --copt='-D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0' --copt=-fvisibility=hidden //native_client:libdeepspeech.so //native_client:generate_trie

I am getting the following error

Starting local Bazel server and connecting to it... slash

Did you clone the DeepSpeech git repository? If you just download it
then it won't work properly because it relies on there being a .git
directory containing version information.

There is no such thing as 'clone link', read your git manual:
git clone https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech and then
git checkout v0.5.1
