Tried to build git 1.4.4.1 away from the source directory -- said
make configure

-- which made a configure, switched to a separate build/ directory, invoked that/../configure -- which ran fine, except produced no Makefile!

What's the way to build git outside from the source directory?

Cheers, Alexy
