No, we mean the .pro file. qmake's file format supports a lot of logic there, including platform detection (scopes like win32, unix, and macx). Never edit the .pro.user file and avoid using Creator's built-in tools for changing the build settings -- do all the work directly in the .pro file except for things that are SPECIFICALLY relevant to only the checkout you're working on.
