Hi Martin

Thanks a lot.

That was exactly my scenario.

Even deleting the *.obj files was not helping . Deleting the folder and  cloning again worked .

Glad to hear this, and thanks for the feedback.

I think a big problem today is that developers tend to put object files and other stuff that is generated during build into .gitignore files, just to avoid that these files are unintentionally added to the next commit.

However, doing so makes these files invisible to git, but they may still be there if "make clean" doesn't clean properly, and then they may unexpectedly affect subsequent builds.

In the projects I'm maintaining, the .gitignore file is mostly empty, so that the repo looks like freshly cloned after I've run "git clean -fd". This pretty much avoids problems like what you have observed.
