worng! In the case of Gambas, the Makefiles are generated by autotools.
There are no Makefiles in the Gambas repository, so pulling changes will
never destroy your Makefiles. Having your old Makefiles intact, you can
still uninstall Gambas cleanly, even after git pull. You do have to take
care to uninstall before running your next ./configure, though.

Tobi
