It works fine for me here (Debian):

  tar xzf git-2.2.0.tar.gz
  cd git-2.2.0
  ./configure --prefix=/tmp/foo --mandir=/tmp/bar
  make install-man

puts the manpages into /tmp/bar.

Can you elaborate on the commands you're running? After running the
configure script, can you confirm that "mandir" is set appropriately in
config.mak.autogen?
