Btw, in case others didn't notice, the easiest way to install the 
pre-packaged branch is a truly disgusting hack:

	cd git
	git tar-tree man | (cd /usr/share/man ; tar xvf -)

or similar (yeah, you need to be root to do the unpack, of course, and 
you may need to change the /usr/share/man to whatever is appropriate for 
your distribution).

No need to actually even check out the 'man' branch.
