It seems to me that's what's missing here is a proper teardown process

the plan for the new QA refactoring though.
There is already a 'devtool reset' which can do the cleanup, but it
can't remove sources as I said in the commit log.
devtool reset not deleting the source tree is intentional - I don't want
Add an option like "devtool reset --force" ? When I met the error, the first
I did was check "devtool reset", but there is no way to remove resources,
so I have to remove it here to allow multilib test cases runs.
I've considered this and decided against it - it just seems to me that at
least one person will use it every time until one day when they wipe out their
source with their changes in it. I'd really rather not be enabling that.
Besides, in everyday use repeated runs of devtool add / modify on the same
recipe should be at a minimum, if that's not the case then we have other
issues to look at.
You say there's no way to remove these, but there is - just delete the files
explicitly.
Or maybe fix "devtool add" to check the git repo correclty ? For example,
when there is already a repo, just update it rather than clone it again.
Right, that has been suggested - and it's all fine if the source tree is
unmodified and just a straight update to get from where it is currently to
match the upstream. However, what if it's not fast-forward, or a different
repo entirely? What if there are local modifications?
The multilib + testsdkext would fail without this fix.
Yes, that's why I ultimately said we haven't much choice but to apply this
patch. We must acknowledge however that the problem exists because the tests
