Can't build jQuery on OS X 10.8.2

[m_gol]

Starting some time ago I can't build jQuery on OS X 10.8.2. It happened when master was on 1.9.0pre and it happens now when it's 2.0.0pre. If I follow instructions and run:

$ npm install
$ grunt

I get an error:

<FATAL> Unable to find "grunt.js" config file. Do you need any --help? </FATAL>

Next, I tried to provide a config file:

$ grunt --config Gruntfile.js

but then I get this:

Running "update_submodules" task

Running "selector:src/selector.js" (selector) task
File 'src/selector.js' created.

I use node from Homebrew, all packages fully updated. npm version is 1.1.69, grunt version is 0.3.17

Sorry, I've messed code parts. Here's my report again:

Starting some time ago I can't build jQuery on OS X 10.8.2. It happened when master was on 1.9.0pre and it happens now when it's 2.0.0pre. If I follow instructions and run:

$ npm install
$ grunt

I get an error:

<FATAL> Unable to find "grunt.js" config file. Do you need any --help? </FATAL>

Next, I tried to provide a config file (though it probably means README.md should be corrected):

$ grunt --config Gruntfile.js

but then I get this:

This isn't the help forum, it's the bug tracker. Please go to forum.jquery.com and post in the Developing jQuery Core forum. Thanks!

OK, posted it here: ​https://forum.jquery.com/topic/can-t-build-jquery-on-os-x-10-8-2

I just thought that if build instructions from README.md don't work then it's a bug in documentation but maybe I reached out. Thanks for your response anyway!
