Sorry, but now you completely lost me. You want git, you are not root, you cannot install git system wide, so you run git installed in your $HOME/bin somewhere instead. I think I am following you correctly up to this point.

But if that is the case, I do not see where your objections to the template directory installed somewhere under $HOME/etc comes from, which is what the default Makefile does, or at least attempts to.
