I thought I'd pass this along, since I didn't want to pull the /entire/ 
repository ...

git prep:
---------
mkdir povray
cd povray/
git init
git config core.sparsecheckout true
echo source/ >> .git/info/sparse-checkout
echo unix/ >> .git/info/sparse-checkout
echo vfe/ >> .git/info/sparse-checkout
echo distribution/ >> .git/info/sparse-checkout
git remote add -f origin https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray
git pull origin master

build prep:
-----------
cd povray/unix
./prebuild.sh
cd ../
./configure COMPILED_BY="jho### [at] povrayorg"
make
sudo make install

... one problem I /just/ discovered is that the unix documentation that 
goes in ~povray/doc/html is missing ... looking into that!
