The btclib_libsecp256k1 project includes libsecp256k1 as submodule in the secp256k1 folder. By default, when cloning a project you get the directories that contain submodules, but none of the files within them. You must run git submodule init to initialize your local configuration file, and git submodule update to fetch the submodule data and check out the appropriate commit.

$ git submodule init
Submodule 'secp256k1' ([e-mail]:bitcoin-core/secp256k1.git) registered for path 'secp256k1'
$ git submodule update
Cloning into 'secp256k1'...

The project uses hatch as a project manager.
