Hello. This is my Org-from-Git recipe: After you've cloned the repository (master branch), run "make" and then edit the "local.mk" file. There you'll find a variable named "prefix"; change it according to your Emacs installation.
In my setup, Emacs files live in /usr/share/emacs/ so I leave "prefix" unchanged. In a previous installation it was in /usr/local/share/emacs/ so I wrote "prefix = /usr/local/share". Only then run "make install". Now the Info manual will be correctly installed. Also important, add this line to your init file: (require 'org-loaddefs) That should do it.
