I agree the behavior is not expected if you're coming from a traditional

Can the mach tool do the clobbering then? If you're correct in your
belief that will encourage adoption.
It /could/, sure. However, I consider auto clobbering a core build
system feature (sheriffs were very vocal about wanting it). As such, it
needs to be part of client.mk. (Please correct me if I am wrong.)
This should say …about wanting it *on buildbot*. I have not heard
sheriffs being very vocal about anything to do with local builds. (Which
means that that particular request could have been solved with an opt-in
rather than an opt-out flag.)
