Hello Everyone,

I'm working on getting git 1.6.2-rc2 built.  I have a bin, man, info,
and html directory in my home folder that I'd like to use as the
defaults for git.  I attempted to do this through

    make configure
    ./configure --XXdir=/full/path/to/dir
    make all man info html
    make install install-man install-info install-html

But other than the binaries (and I'm not even totally convinced they
got in correctly) and the man pages, everything else seems to be
attempting to go to the typical places in /usr/local.

What am I doing wrong?
