Good.

This is a fairly minor point, but if we look at the places where
OBJECTS, PROGRAMS, and friends are prepared in the Makefile, they
all start with empty, i.e.

	LIBGIT_PUB_OBJS =

at a fairly early place in the file, and then appends real contents
to the symbol with += assignment.  It probably makes sense to follow
suit, although the result would be the same.

Other than that, nothing jumped at me as fishy.  Nicely done.

Thanks.  Will replace.
