You're right!

Is there something I need to set in my global .gitconfig?

If it's a botched install I need to know why, or it will just be botched the same way when I reinstall. I only remember two things about the install, ...

- I did configure with prefix=/opt
- odd thing: nothing was installed into /opt: it all went into /root (I 
might have been root for the whole process, which I know is bad).  I 
just cp'd everything over to /opt, and everything worked OK (until now).

Any ideas? I'm happy to reinstall once I know what went wrong. The git I installed on my mac is really working fine.

Best wishes

Ivan
