I don't know how to compile Git, but the general practice in Unix builds is for "make" to *compile* the needed code, but only into files within the source/build directories. Then one does "make install" to copy the compiled files into their intended destination locations. There is usually a text file named README or INSTALL that described the particular make commands needed to build and install the package.
