On a shared server not all users are granted with write access to the /usr/local dir. I did it to allow installing git-recall in chosen path i.e. /home/kiela dir.
How the change addresses the need:
It allows overriding PREFIX and BINPREFIX variables when needed. Otherwise set them to default values.
Testing procedure:
Install git-recall to your home dir:
PREFIX=$HOME make install
Now you should have git-recall in your $HOME/bin dir.
