Re: [PATCH 0/3] doc-diff: add "clean" mode & fix portability problem

Eric Sunshine [off-list ref] writes:

This series replaces Peff's solo patch[1] which updates "make clean" to
remove doc-diff's temporary directory. Rather than imbuing the Makefile
with knowledge specific to doc-diff's internals, this series adds a
"clean" mode to doc-diff which removes its temporary worktree and
generated files, and has "make clean" invoke that instead.

That sounds like a better approach.

It also fixes
a portability problem which prevented doc-diff from working on MacOS and
FreeBSD.
