That rather tedious enumeration is something that rarely changes and provides error checking where automatic enumeration does not. A build system should know if any of the relevant files are missing, and it should ignore all non-relevant files. Therefore tedious enumeration is often the best practice.
sure sometimes this is true. in other cases, it boils down to a human-written list that contains files that were non-relevant from the beginning...
anyhow, i'm not so objecting enumeration, but i'm very much objecting enumeration of files for extra/pd~/ in extra/Makefile. shouldn't they be enumerated in extra/pd~/Makefile?
