Subject: First time compiling source
Message-ID: <c0f2d4110801151234i2292ad2aw48e38f4f4fcb5ee7@mail.gmail.com>

Up until today I've always run git off whatever debs come with ubuntu.
But if I'm going to try to do some work I figured I should be
compiling from source.

To compile I did
git co -b current v1.5.3.8
make
make install

then to check
which git
/home/chrisortman/bin/git
as expected

however git --version still reports 1.5.2.5

What did I miss?

Thanks
