[Carl George <carl.george@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was able to fix this issue.  Fedora uses a patch that modifies the
subtree Makefile to use a variable named gitexecdir.  When we first
ported from Fedora, we pulled in this change.  However, at a later point
the patch was failing, so we regenerated it, but forgot the line that
defines gitexecdir [0].  This resulted in gitexecdir being an empty
string, causing the install command in the Makefile to place the package
at the top of the build root.

The new build that corrects this is git18-1.8.5.5-4.ius.  It will be
pushed to our testing repos tonight.  I already did a test install with
it, but please install it and verify that the package works as expected.

yum --enablerepo=ius-testing update git18
