Hi,
(Kindly Cc me, I am not subscribed)

Process followed: $ make configure $ ./configure --prefix=/scratch/kap4lin/usr $ make all $ make install

The make install step is giving the following error:
make -C templates DESTDIR='' install
make[1]: Entering directory `/scratch/kap4lin/softwares/git-1.6.6.1/templates'
install -d -m 755 '/scratch/kap4lin/usr/share/git-core/templates'
(cd blt && gtar cf - .) | \
        (cd '/scratch/kap4lin/usr/share/git-core/templates' && umask
022 && gtar xof -)
gtar: This does not look like a tar archive
gtar: Skipping to next header
gtar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
gtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
make[1]: *** [install] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/scratch/kap4lin/softwares/git-1.6.6.1/templates'
make: *** [install] Error 2
Any help?
