I'm having issues after having compiled git from source and then using the resulting binaries in a downloadable kit of my own creation (basically the tar'd up results of the 'make install'). This kit gets installed in a randomly named directory (its never consistent).
The issue is that the git executables have the original full path (from PREFIX) baked into them at compile time. When they are called they try running things on original path...not the new randomly named directory (got this from using strings on the executables and greping for the the original path) There are some environmental variables you can set (GITPERLLIB, GIT_GUI_LIB_DIR and TEXTDOMAINDIR) but there doesnt seem to be an environment variable to set to overide the baked in path. Hoping I dont have to dynamically compile git everytime I do one of these kit installs. Anyone run into this before? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
