I do not see much point in the goal, not quite.  You can do "make
git.o" and "make git" and you do not have to build unrelated things.

I do like the cleanups earlier in the series (I have mixed feelings on
the first patch, though; see my comments there).

Sorry that I forgot to say so, but even though I do not see much
point in the stated goal, I do not mind the clean-up changes in the
earlier parts of the series.  I just didn't see much value in doing
so, as a way to get to git.o (or "objects") target.
