Kirill SmelkovCommit d8cf908c (config.mak.in: remove unused definitions) removed
exec_prefix = @exec_prefix@
from config.mak.in, because nobody directly used ${exec_prefix}, but overlooked that other autoconf definitions could indirectly expand that variable.
For example the following snippet from config.mak.in
prefix = @prefix@
bindir = @bindir@
gitexecdir = @libexecdir@/git-core
datarootdir = @datarootdir@
template_dir = @datadir@/git-core/templates
sysconfdir = @sysconfdir@is expanded to
prefix = /home/kirr/local/git
bindir = ${exec_prefix}/bin <-- HERE
gitexecdir = ${exec_prefix}/libexec/git-core <--
datarootdir = ${prefix}/share
template_dir = ${datarootdir}/git-core/templates
sysconfdir = ${prefix}/etcon my system, after `configure --prefix=$HOME/local/git`
and withot exec_prefix being defined there I get an error on install:
install -d -m 755 '/bin'
install -d -m 755 '/libexec/git-core'
install: cannot create directory `/libexec': Permission denied
