[Ovirt-devel] [PATCH] "make clean" should not don't remove my backups!

[Jim Meyering]

It is not the job of "make clean" to remove a user's backup files.
It should remove only those files that "make some-target" can create.

FYI, these separately-created patches apply to docs and release subdirs.
The docs patch has the "-f" option.
