Thanks for bringing this up Boud, I just pushed a commit to partially address the problem: as described in the message: Astropy is no longer built by default and `TARGETS.conf' has been added to the set of files to be ignored in a merge (and avoid conflicts).

Have you tried the customization checklist in README-hacking.md? I always start new projects by following this list, because I usually forget some points that I have learnt over the years ;-).

I am not yet closing this task because to remove Gnuastro as a default built software, we need to modify the demonstration analysis.

The present main trunk of maneage has gnuastro and astropy as
targets. While many astronomers working on observational
projects will be happy to have both, many branches of maneage
will most likely be projects with only the minimal additional
packages beyond the basic.mk packages added as targets.
Moreover, many packages will be non-astronomical.

If someone developing a maneage-branched project wishes to update
by merging recent developments from the main maneage trunk to
his/her project, then at the moment, when s/he wishes to do a merge, s/he will have to do a merge of only some of the commits
(git cherry-pick them, for example), carefully avoid merging
the TARGETS.conf file, and also checking various other changes
that might have diverged.

Is it right that the only really annoying divergence that
needs to be checked carefully is TARGETS.conf ?

I'm just thinking aloud here - I haven't tried this yet, but
it would make sense to sooner or later.

Maybe this is already easy - so there may be not much to do
on this task... :)
