Looking at this a bit this morning, I'm not sure that it is el-get (at
least alone) that is insisting on the .info suffix. The portion of elisp in
el-get that adds the .info suffix:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(if (string= (substring infofile -5) ".info")
infofile
(concat infofile ".info"))
#+end_src
(Side note, I did try a work around,
https://github.com/SkydiveMike/el-get/commit/88920c84bbe4d814bae1e79cdda163315d8d8d24that
doesn't work).
Is only called if the ~dir~' file does not exist (and other conditions) and
as part of creating a command string for ~/usr/bin/install-info~. Since an
non-built (no execution of ~make~) Org mode Git clone has a ~dir~ file,
this code is never called.
I also don't believe that ~cp org org.info~ in
~$HOME/.emacs.d/el-get/org-mode/~ fixes things (I currently can't get the
correct info to display using that).
