Over time we seem to have accumulated all sorts of crud in the build dir that were never meant to be uploaded:
There are no secrets in there, but still we should be more conscious of what we upload and keep artifacts in public build dirs to strictly what we intend.
Historically,
$tmp_builddirwas meant to be the staging area for the final contents of the build dir we would move into place and$TMPDIRwas the truly temporary directory for that build. Over time, that distinction has been lost a bit and things that shouldn't have been placed there were.In the end, I think it's cleaner to instead operate on an allowlist of files we know belong in the build dir, so let's do that.
