The install-sh script as shipped with automake requires a space between the -m switch and its argument. Since this is also the regular way of doing it with other install implementations this change inserts the missing space in all makefiles.

I do not think this is risky, so I'll take it but please yell if it breaks some existing setups.

I'll ask Shawn to do that part separately.
Thanks.

The git-gui portion is already in my master branch. See the "What's in git-gui.git" I sent out last evening.
