For my use I always delete Makefiles after modifying any of *.pro files, I'm sure it exists a better way but honestly I didn't investigate too much on this. > Also I don't understand why you set 'MAKEFILE = qmake' in the src/src.pro -- > it does not seem to be respected, at least when I call it through the > top-level qgit.pro (which I now have to when there are 3 subdirs). > >From http://doc.trolltech.com/4.0/qmake-variable-reference.html#makefile MAKEFILE This variable specifies the name of the Makefile which qmake should use when outputting the dependency information for building a project. The value of this variable is typically handled by qmake or qmake.conf and rarely needs to be modified. I annotated the src.pro file and I found that line belongs from the very first version of src.pro, possibly copied from the Qt examples, so it smells you are right and we could remove that.
