It removes $(dep_dirs) in "make clean".  Do you think they should be
kept around?  Or is this about when COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES is
turned off but .o.d files remain?

Good idea.

That would not be hard to do, but wouldn’t the $(GIT_OBJS): $(LIB_H)
rule create a lot of noise?

How about if it checks for duplicate dependencies and unnecessary
dependencies that are not in LIB_H?

This couldn’t hurt, but I wonder whether it is necessary; see above.

Thanks for the feedback,
