During development, it is often practical to have many output
directories.  The output directory is easily specified with O=<output>
though is it useful to have a convention of 'output...' e.g.
"output-rpi", "output-rpi2", and "output-rpi3-64".

Not sure this is a good idea, it kind of makes an assumption on how
people would name their output directories.

If you're annoyed by your output directories, use make O=../output-rpi2
instead of make O=output-rpi2, and that's it :-)

Best regards,

Thomas

 You can also add /output* to .git/info/exclude (this is what I do).

 Arnout

Yes, that is why I mentionned that it should be "useful to have a convention of
'output...'"; and I think that 'output*' is not too intrusive.

It is a good suggestion by the way; but I have many buildroot working copies in
the same directory, and to avoid collision I prefer having the output directory
directly under the working copy.

I will look to the suggestion of Arnout.

King regards,
Gael

 Actually, what I do is I have an out/ directory with all the build things and I
do builds with O=out/arm-glibc or O=out/rpi0, and I have /out in
.git/info/exclude. output is too long :-)

 Arnout
