Re: [PATCH 1/1] subtree: make install targets depend on build targets

Jonathan Nieder [off-list ref] writes:

The rule says

 install-html: html
	$(INSTALL) -d -m 755 $(DESTDIR)$(htmldir)
	$(INSTALL) -m 644 $^ $(DESTDIR)$(htmldir)

and $^ substitutes to "html" after this change.

Sorry about that.

Subject: [PATCH] Revert "subtree: make install targets depend on build targets"

This reverts commit 744f7c4c314dc0e7816ac05520e8358c8318187a.

These targets do depend on the fact that each prereq is explicitly
listed via their use of $^, which I failed to notice, and broke the
build.
