I think making the tests remove their own mess makes sense regardless. I have to wonder why you would want to make this change conditional on MAKEFLAGS. I was envisioning that parallel tests would run in "trash directory/$(basename $0)" or something. Are there downsides of doing this change unconditionally? > clean: > - $(RM) -r 'trash directory' test-results > + $(RM) -rf 'trash directory' test-results This is not needed, I think, as RM is defined with -f already. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
