was verifying that "make distclean" really removed all generated artifacts of a build and, after building and distcleaning, while "git status" showed no remaining untracked content, there was this:

$ git status --ignored On branch master Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.

Ignored files: (use "git add -f <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

tools/env/embedded.c

nothing to commit, working tree clean $

so while that file is clearly produced by a build, and it is referenced in a very short tools/env/.gitignore file:

embedded.c fw_printenv fw_printenv_unstripped

it is obviously not removed by "make distclean". is this deliberate?
