Comment #4 on issue 2418 by [email protected]: Patch: Don't copy GNUmakefile and *.make from within builddir to builddir
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2418
What keeps you from putting the source into ~/lilypond/src and the build into ~/lilypond/build? The point of a separate build directory is not clobbering the source. And in the case of LilyPond, clobbering the source is unsafe since LilyPond finds a lot of things via wildcards instead of having them hardwired: I had builds aborting because I was continuing to edit without saving, and the build choked while trying to compile Emacs' lock files or autosave files.
My usual arrangement is to have something like /usr/local/tmp/emacs and /usr/local/tmp/emacs-build.
