Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve
- when building in containers (e.g distrobox), to use installed software, you need to install it into mounted volumes like
~/.local/share, because system-wide directories cannot be accessed from host system.
- however, github cli is installed to hardcoded
/usr/local path, making this hard.
Proposed solution
the install prefix in the Makefile should be configurable. for example, prefix=~/.local/share make install.
Additional context
this would make installing the GitHub CLI much easier in restricted or non-standard environments.
