Situation: sudo make install can rebuilds the whole package even if you've just built it before. For instance: make configure ./configure # defaults to --prefix=/usr/local make all doc sudo make install install-doc install-html # REBUILDS HAPPEN HERE This causes the "sudo make install" to rebuild everything because it believes the version had changed. sudo strips $PATH for security reasons. The underlying problem flow is: 1 - Makefile has "include GIT-VERSION-FILE", thus gmake builds GIT-VERSION-FILE early. 2 - GIT-VERSION-FILE depends on a .PHONY target (.FORCE-GIT-VERSION-FILE) 3 - Thus, GNU make *always* executes GIT-VERSION-GEN 4 - GIT-VERSION-GEN now, under the stripped $PATH, cannot find "git" and sees a different version number. 5 - GIT-VERSION-GEN notes the difference in versions and regenerates GIT-VERSION-FILE, with up-to-date timestamp. 6 - GNU make rebuilds everything because GIT-VERSION-FILE is new. The patch makes GIT-VERSION-GEN look for git in $(prefix)/bin, then for the newly built git$X executable, before falling back to plain "git" and thus to the default version in GIT-VERSION-GEN. This increases chances that we get the same version with the stripped $PATH and get away without rebuild. Junio C. Hamano suggested that we look into $(prefix)/bin before the current work directory in order to aid cross-compiling.
