I do not trust "git clean" all that much, and pre-cleaning with "make distclean" and then running "git clean -x" has become my bad habit. I jump around quite a bit during the day, which would end up littering the working tree with *.o files that are only known to one but not both of {maint,pu}/Makefile's distclean rules. I even do "for i in pu maint master next; do git checkout $i; make distclean; done" sometimes before running "git clean -x" ;-)
