Hello, I just finished building and installing git on my Android device. After testing, I'd like to build it in such a way that I can tarball and upload/send it. Are there any make targets that would allow me to do that or do I need to rebuild with the NO_CROSS_DIRECTORY_HARDLINKS option and install to a stage directory...like /usr/git or /usr/local/git?

Many thanks in advance.
MLO
PS: I'm somewhat new to linux-based systems in general and the make
system in particular; obvious follow-up questions may be asked
