-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
 Git expects its html documentation to be in a precise place, represented
 by the ''GIT_HTML_PATH'' environment variable in the source (builtin-
 help.c), set in the Makefile from the ''htmldir'' variable. The default
 git html path is ''$(sharedir)/doc/git-doc'' but the git-core Portfile
 installs all doc files including the html files in ''${prefix}/share/doc
 /git-core''. This makes commands like ''git help --web COMMAND'' to fail
 with the following error message: "fatal: '/opt/local/share/doc/git-doc':
 not a documentation directory".

 The git-core Portfile should either modify the ''htmldir'' variable in the
 Makefile or install the html documenation files in the correct location.
