This option allows the 'make autoconf.mk' step to run against a former repo state, while the savedefconfig step runs against the current repo state. This is convenient for the case where something in the Kconfig has changed such that the defconfig is no longer complete with the new Kconfigs. This feature allows the .config to be built assuming those old Kconfigs, but then savedefconfig based on the new state of the Kconfigs.
If in doubt, always specify this switch. It will always do the right thing even if not required, but if it was required and you don't use it, the moved configs will be incorrect. When not using this switch, you must very carefully evaluate that all moved configs are correct.
