I was recently testing Git's behavior with respect to various versions of libcurl. So I built a one-off libcurl and installed it in /tmp/foo, but was surprised that: make CURL_CONFIG=/tmp/foo/bin/curl-config didn't work, since we do run "$(CURL_CONFIG) --libs". This fixes it, along with a minor optimization to the existing "--libs" call. [1/2]: Makefile: avoid running curl-config multiple times [2/2]: Makefile: use curl-config --cflags Makefile | 15 ++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) -Peff
