[pymvpa] Error on build step on CentOS

[Rico Velasco]

Git is not available on centOS 5. And i do not have the permission to install it. I tried. 
Getting everything on took quite a bit of tweaking. And use of wget. 
i was able to run other intall scripts sans git. Can I alter the make script to look for it localy?
