I was a bit worried too initially, but casually didn't notice any
difference so I didn't do any measurements. Now I have, and it looks
like it adds about 2 sec on a rebuild with no changes. I probably can
rework it to a single shell and git call per invocation of
Makefile.lib. What I really need is git-check-ignore to take '-n'
without '-v', but grep can solve that.
Here's the raw data:
