Hi,

I have trouble installing the Git Perl module to the correct
installation prefix, which is required for git send-email.

The problem is reproducible with the following commands:

    ./configure --prefix=/home/peter/usr/rhel6-x86_64/git-1.7.12
    make
    make install

While git is installed to --prefix, the Git Perl module is not:

    …

    make[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/git/git-1.7.12/templates'
    install -d -m 755

    (cd blt && gtar cf - .) | \

    …

As seen above, the perl module is installed to the parent directory.

Strangely, if perl/Makefile is invoked manually, it works:

    make -C perl prefix='/home/peter/usr/rhel6-x86_64/git-1.7.12' DESTDIR='' 
install
