Hey @paulftw, could you have a look at this bug and make sure you add some documentation on how to correctly run ratel from source code?

Thanks!

@chandra155 what is the output of git rev-parse --short HEAD when you run it in the ratel/client folder?
Seems like your source folder is not in a git repository. Did you download a zip archive or something?
