lots of serious tools support it, as it this comes automatically
when using automake. Eg. emacs, gcc, make, pango, lilypond, etc etc. 

It's a quite standard feature ; you should be asking why git 
shouldn't support it.

Another option is to make a special solution based on makefiles, so 
make is run inside the srcdir, but output shunted output to a 
separate objects/ subdirectory.  However, it's more work, and less 
standardized.
