Huh?

git clone https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd.git
git clone https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime.git
git clone https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos.git

cd ./dmd/src
make -f posix.mak MODEL=64 RELEASE=1

cd ../../druntime
make -f posix.mak MODEL=64 DMD=../dmd/src/dmd RELEASE=1

cd ../phobos
make -f posix.mak MODEL=64 DMD=../dmd/src/dmd RELEASE=1

After that just make symlink to dmd binary and add 
Phobos/druntime paths to dmd.conf and you are ready to go.
