Awesome. I've done some more "./configure --prefix" testing, and this i=
s
the result:

  # --prefix is set to non-existing directory
  ./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local/varprg/git.master.v2.0.1-472-g6f92e=
5f
    # ./t5150-request-pull.sh fails.

  # --prefix is set to non-existing directory, use trailing slash
  ./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local/varprg/git.master.v2.0.1-472-g6f92e=
5f/
    # ./t5150-request-pull.sh fails.

  # --prefix is set to existing directory
  ./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local/varprg/git.master.v2.0.1-442-g7fe68=
34
    # ./t5150-request-pull.sh fails.

  # --prefix is set to existing directory
  ./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local
    # ./t5150-request-pull.sh succeeds.

  # --prefix is set to existing directory
  ./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local/varprg
    # ./t5150-request-pull.sh succeeds.

  # --prefix is set to non-existing directory
  ./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local/varprg/a-long-directory-name-which-=
does-not-exist
    # ./t5150-request-pull.sh succeeds.

  ./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local/varprg/git.master.a-long-directory-=
name-which-does-not-exist
    # ./t5150-request-pull.sh succeeds.

So it's something with names like "git.master.v2.0.1-472-g6f92e5f" that
"./configure --prefix" is picky about.

When testing this last night, I pushed the following branches to
<https://github.com/sunny256/git> where I added all compiled files in
various stages with "git add -f .":

  t5150-fail.configure-without-prefix
    Succeeds.
    "./configure"

  t5150-fail.configure-with-prefix
    Fails.
    "./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local/varprg/git.master.v2.0.1-472-g6f=
92e5f"

  t5150-fail.configure-prefix-usr-local
    Succeeds.
    "./configure --prefix=3D/usr/local"

Maybe something will turn up by diffing those branches. I've got to
leave for now, but will have a look at this later tonight.

Cheers,
