What's the reason for versioning e.g. Makefile.compiled?
The Makefile.compiled is used by "make" to create the
pkgname.compiled files. This way the IDE knows how a package was
compiled and knows if it needs to recompile the package.
Since everything must be compiled on the *local* machine, it doesn't
make sense to import (from the repo) an Makefile.compiled from a
*different* machine. Like it doesn't make sense to import the compiled
(binary) files, that match the imported Makefile.compiled.
What exactly makes no sense?
The Makefile.compiled must match the last compilation on the user
machine. It doesn't make sense to use one from a compilation on a
different machine. Following your explanations, currently "make" is
fooled whenever a Makefile.compiled is overwritten ("updated") by a
version from the repository.
