RE: [GIT PATCH] Makefile missing git-runstatus in PROGRAMS list

Interesting.  You do not seem to have not just git-runstatus but
anything built-in.  The last action in "make install" should
look like this log entry (I just did "make prefix=/var/tmp/ggg
clean all install"):

rm -f '/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git-format-patch' && ln 
'/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git' '/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git-format-patch' ;  
rm -f '/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git-show' && ln 
'/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git' '/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git-show' ; ... rm 
-f '/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git-verify-pack' && ln 
'/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git' '/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git-verify-pack' ;  
rm -f '/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git-write-tree' && ln 
'/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git' '/var/tmp/ggg/bin/git-write-tree' ;

that installs 47 hardlinks to $(prefix)/bin/git.

Attached is my attempt at the same command "make prefix=/var/tmp/ggg clean
all install"

make install failes for the templates directory, leading to the entire make
install failing:

make -C templates DESTDIR='' install
make[1]: Entering directory `/VMware/kernel/git/git/templates'
: no custom templates yet
install -d -m755 '/var/tmp/ggg/share/git-core/templates/'
(cd blt && tar cf - .) | \
(cd '/var/tmp/ggg/share/git-core/templates/' && tar xf -)
tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
make[1]: *** [install] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/VMware/kernel/git/git/templates'
make: *** [install] Error 2
