make distclean and git clean -xdf disagree (makedepend_file)
Howdy folks,

The release managers guide has this:

$ make distclean # make sure distclean works
$ git clean -xdf # make sure perl and git agree on files
# git clean should not output anything!

Sadly this outputs 'makedepend_file'.

I wasn't sure of where to fix this, though I'm guessing Makefile.SH.

Any takers?

Thanks,

Wild, after I clicked send gmail informed me Nicholas' response was in
Spam which is why I did not see it.

gmail is awesome. The self-same message from me (sent to the list) can end
up in the spam for some gmail users, but not for others.

Clearly the left hand of Google and the right hand of Google are too busy
doing things in a distributed fashion to stay coherent. Or learn from
this.*

(Or. More obviously, it's my fault for refusing to get with the Borg and use
gmail.)
