The "install" target fails if the installation path does not support hard links (I noticed this when installing `git' into a bind-mounted directory).
When installing git' (which comes with git-gui), the install process allows to control the use of hard links via the variableNO_INSTALL_HARDLINKS'. This variable is ignored by the git-gui Makefile, though.
Please see the git bug report for more details and for a patch by Junio C Hamano for fixing the problem.
