    Move associated ignore directive to top-level .gitignore file.

    Tested on Linux Mint 19.2. The version string has been created as expected. make creates src/obj directory and build.h file in it. make clean removes build.h file. It should remove src/obj directory as well.

    Another approach is to move build.h file from src/obj to src, maybe.

    make clean removes build.h file. It should remove src/obj directory as well.

    But only if no other files were added? removing a directory recursively in make clean would be definitely too dangerous.

    Eventually, yes, but I don’t really want to change that here. I just don’t want an obj directory in git. The src directory is for source and anyhow, it makes no sense in the dividing up of source files.

    Why recursively? Could be rmdir.

    Standard Makefile Targets:

    make clean Erase from the build tree the files built by make all.

    …and doesn’t need to be in the repository nor in the tarballs. @laanwj Just to be clear… src/obj/build.h should be in the tarballs (could be at another path), so that HOST-specific builds can be context-less and git-less. Correct?

    I don’t think so, none of the tarballs I checked had it at least:

    0$ for VERSION in 0.15.0 0.16.0 0.17.0 0.18.0 0.18.1rc1 0.18.1; do tar -tvf bitcoin-core-${VERSION}/bitcoin-${VERSION}.tar.gz|grep src/obj ; done
1(…no output…)

    @laanwj What I’m saying is that src/obj/build.h isn’t in the tarballs as of now, but it should be. So that we don’t need the weird copying trick here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/b499d8576f30d13dfe9000852afe47ee1c28cfbe/contrib/gitian-descriptors/gitian-linux.yml#L168-L177

    Not sure; there is just the git commit id in build.h. And we intentionally don’t embed the git commit id in releases or tarballs (it’s unnecessary: the tag itself exactly identifies the build source). All relevant version information is in configure.ac and passed by the build system (CLIENT_VERSION_MAJOR, CLIENT_VERSION_MINOR, …).

    But let’s have this discussion elsewhere, it doesn’t affect this PR.

    This directory is automatically created by the build process (in the build target directory, see #16588) and doesn’t need to be in the repository nor in the tarballs.

    Gitian tarballs do not contain src/obj directory already.

    EDITED: Sorry for noise: I see your comment now.
