Description

The README instructs to run

lake exe generate-manual --depth 2

but on a fresh checkout (f447334e7f0491de855df4218188481ed6023263) this fails with

uncaught exception: No source found for tutorials. Errors encountered:
 * no such file or directory (error code: 4294967294)
  file: /Users/wjn/reference-manual/_tutorial-out/xref.json

Research direction

Start with the README instructions for lake exe generate-manual --depth 2 and reproduce the failure on commit f447334e7f0491de855df4218188481ed6023263. Trace why the command cannot find tutorials or _tutorial-out/xref.json; done means the documented command succeeds on a fresh checkout.
