[Mono-dev] Monodevelop on centos 6.5 configure error

[Brandon Perry]

Thanks, this worked to pass the configuration.

However, make now fails:

[root at localhost monodevelop]# make
if test -d ".git"; then \
git submodule update --init --recursive || exit 1; \
fi
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/monodevelop/main'
Making all in external
make[2]: Entering directory `/root/monodevelop/main/external'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/monodevelop/main/external'
Making all in .
make[2]: Entering directory `/root/monodevelop/main'
if test -f "./buildinfo"; then cp "./buildinfo" "./build/bin/buildinfo";
else ./../scripts/configure.sh gen-buildinfo "./build/bin"; fi
/usr/bin/git failed
make[2]: *** [build/bin/buildinfo] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/monodevelop/main'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/monodevelop/main'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
[root at localhost monodevelop]#

I have git installed via yum:

[root at localhost monodevelop]# git --version
git version 1.7.1
[root at localhost monodevelop]#

Is a specific version of git required? All of my sources were checked out
with git, so I know it is at least functional.
