Last time I proposed removing the automatic rebuilding of checked-in generated files, it seemed getting a consensus would not be trivial. Nick seemed strongly against changing the status quo: <https://mail-archive.com/search?l=mid&q=CADiSq7d2NV0hbcQB1bYvc9M2qUYZiYC7RsG=fnw7tdWia2YmQg@mail.gmail.com>. He did say it has been too hard to remember how to rebuild generated files in the past. Documenting the quirks of the build system would be good even if we keep the automatic regeneration.
