I have been struggling to get the info from the git repo to display in 
Emacs, rather than the default info.

In my .emacs I have: (add-to-list 'Info-default-directory-list 
"~/.emacs.d/src/org-mode/doc/")

C-h v Info-directory-list shows:

Info-directory-list's value is
("~/.emacs.d/src/org-mode/doc/" "/usr/share/info/emacs-23" 
"/usr/share/info/" "/usr/share/info/")


However, I still get the info file for org 6.36.trans displayed. If I do:

info ~/.emacs.d/src/org-mode/doc/org

I get the correct git version of the info file. So what am I doing wrong?

I am using:

GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.21.6)
  of 2010-09-01 on americium, modified by Debian
