This creates "git-log" as a link to "git", but does so at _build_ time, not install time. Which means that when it actually gets installed, it gets installed as a copy of that link, and you get two different executables instead of one single executable that is just linked to two names: [torvalds@g5 git]$ ls -li /home/torvalds/bin/git ~/bin/git-log 67272830 -rwxr-xr-x 1 torvalds torvalds 333613 Apr 11 06:45 /home/torvalds/bin/git 67272781 -rwxr-xr-x 1 torvalds torvalds 333613 Apr 11 06:45 /home/torvalds/bin/git-log so it _works_, but it wastes 300kB+ for each "builtin". Which was kind of against the whole point. I think the builtins should be a install-time only issue. Linus
