I could do just 'make obj build' or something like that, but I wanted to make clear that I'm not skipping any steps which are required at the first rebuild, as it could be definitely expected from a newbie in the field. I even wrote all those 'cd ...'s to filter out notes like "do you really stick to the intructions in the FAQ?" and similar BFU-typical errors (which are generally assumed vey well possible in someone who stamps themselves as a "new user"). In reality I just wipe obj, then make obj build, sure.
