HOW TO INSTALL git-subtree
==========================
 
First, build from the top source directory.
 
Then, in contrib/subtree, run:
 
  make
  make install
  make install-doc
 
If you used configure to do the main build the git-subtree build will
pick up those settings.  If not, you will likely have to provide a
value for prefix:
 
  make prefix=<some dir>
  make prefix=<some dir> install
  make prefix=<some dir> install-doc
 
To run tests first copy git-subtree to the main build area so the
newly-built git can find it:
 
  cp git-subtree ../..
 
Then:
 
  make test
