Subject:   method for installing ports

Ive read many many guides found all over the net in the past few days, and
they can never seem to agree on the way a port is installed.  I see these
methods:

Make install
Make install clean
Make install distclean

What is the difference between the 3, and are there legitimate times when
one is preferred over the other?

Thanks,
jonathan
