Uninstalling Git

Hello! This must be a stupid-obvious-newbie question but... Well, the point is that I installed the git version 1.5.2.1 in an ubuntu box. That was done following the INSTALL instructions in the corresponding tarball. I typed: $ make configure $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local $ make all doc $ sudo make install install-doc First, I'd like to uninstall the thing completely, how do I do that? Second, what would be the correct procedure to follow if I would like just to upgrade to a newer version? install over the older perhaps? Is that always safe in the sense that there won't be any dangling piece of bin nor doc? Thanks in advance!
