Can't build git on Lion?

Can't build git on Lion?

[Jonathan del Strother]

Heya,
I've upgraded my OS X machine from 10.6 to 10.7 (Lion), and seem to be
no longer able to build git.  Running 'make' results in:
    GEN git-add--interactive
make[2]: *** No rule to make target
`/System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Config.pm',
needed by `perl.mak'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [instlibdir] Error 2
make: *** [git-add--interactive] Error 2

There's no /System/Library/Perl/5.10.0 directory, but there is a 5.10
directory.  Symlinking that to 5.10.0 gives me :

    GEN git-add--interactive
Writing perl.mak for Git
make[2]: *** [perl.mak] Error 1
make[1]: *** [instlibdir] Error 2
make: *** [git-add--interactive] Error 2


Running 'perl -v' shows I'm running v5.12.3.  Where is that
"/System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/Config.pm"
path obtained from?  Any other information I can provide?

I've seen this issue pop up serveral times in the last few days in various 
places; the solution is to install (or re-install) XCode as the installation 
does not persist correctly across upgrades. Versions prior to 4.1 are 
incompatible with Lion; also, after you download it from the App Store, make 
sure that you run the "XCode Installer" app that is placed in your 
Applications folder.

The last time I saw this error it was because the Perl version
changed.  "make clean" fixed it for me.  YMMV.

Oh, good point.  Yes, 'make clean' fixed things, thanks for the tip.

Just for info, I have successfully built v1.7.6 on both Xcode 4.1 and
4.2, both on Lion.
