Due that for ubuntu 10 last packed git is 1.7.0 release I installed git in linux from sources in this way:

wget .../git-1.7.6.tar.gz (incomplete web address but I download correctly)
apt-get build-dep git-core
tar -zxvf git-1.7.6.tar.gz
cd git-1.7.6.tar.gz
./configure
|make prefix=/usr/local all
sudo make prefix=/usr/local install|
all these command executed from my user maggiordomo (it is the user that could be used for sudo)
the problem is that to execute git I need sudo permissions:

git --version doesn't work sudo git --version works.

1. What I did wrong?
2. If I make some mistakes installing from sources normally I use sudo make uninstall (from source directory) 
and I can remove the application. With git this simple doesn't work.
What have I to search and to remove other then the source directory (that has also .o .sh and executables)?
