Ok, so apparently it's something wrong with our environments? Is it possible something is failing silently? Any tips for how to troubleshoot?
BTW I'm not doing anything special when compiling, just git checkout REL_13_6, ./configure, ./make (unless I am doing something wrong there?)
Also the README.md makes mention of an INSTALL file that contains instructions about prerequisites for compilation but I couldn't find it in the repository.

No, we dealt with that case long ago: you get
$ make
You need to run the 'configure' program first. See the file
'README.git' for installation instructions, or visit:
<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/installation.html>
make: *** [all] Error 1
Anyway, 13.6 certainly builds on my M1 laptop, as well as my
M1 buildfarm animal [1], so it's not a case of "it's completely
broken". But you need the appropriate prerequisites, eg
an Xcode installation [2]. I wonder exactly what configure
options the OP is using, and what's installed on his Mac
beyond bare macOS.
