I read about the solution using `git`, but it definitely seems like side-stepping the problem. If you're going to provide a way to get a list of all the generated files so you can remove them by other means, why not just allow you to do it directly? But I don't think we're in disagreement here.
Perhaps I just don't completely understand what problem tup is trying to solve then. When I read about tup, I picture it being a complete replacement for something like make (And indeed, it says as much right on the website). Packaging a Tupfile along with a Makefile seems like an annoying solution to something that I really don't think should be a problem in the first place. It seems like taking a stance to a bit of an absurd degree for a feature I really don't think is that big of a deal. The author is free to do what they want, but I think they're sacrificing usability for purity.
Tup is appealing to me, but a tup/make combo isn't nearly as appealing.
