Hi,

You seem to be missing git-sh-setup (called `git-sh-setup.sh` in
git.git), another shell script that's called by every other shell
script in Git.
   

... but git-sh-setup is in /opt/libexec/git-core/ ...

As for reinstalling: unless something else is broken, I'm happy with "git
fetch; git merge origin".  However, I should like to understand why git pull
is not working.
     

A lot of other things won't work. `git rebase -i` for example is
another shell script `git-rebase--interactive.sh`.
   

You're right!

Is there something I need to set in my global .gitconfig?

If it's a botched install I need to know why, or it will just be botched 
the same way when I reinstall.  I only remember two things about the 
install, ...

- I did configure with prefix=/opt
- odd thing: nothing was installed into /opt: it all went into /root (I 
might have been root for the whole process, which I know is bad).  I 
just cp'd everything over to /opt, and everything worked OK (until now).

Any ideas?  I'm happy to reinstall once I know what went wrong.  The git 
I installed on my mac is really working fine.

Best wishes

Ivan
