#2462: reStructuredText files generated by Sphinx shows in svn status

When I build documentation (`make sphinxdoc`) and then do `svn status` I
get a lot of `rst` files which were generated by Sphinx during the build.

The affected directories are:

  * `gui/wxpython/docs/wxgui_sphinx/src`
  * `lib/python/docs/src/`

Just ignoring the files in SVN is probably not a good option since the
list of files may (will) grow. Perhaps mixing the generated and hand-
written files in one directory is bad. Do you have any ideas how to solve
this?

The workaround is to do `make cleansphinx` which will delete the generated
`rst` files. I still see `gui/wxpython/docs/wxgui_sphinx/_build` although
I don't see `_build` in `lib/python...` directory.

Comment(by neteler):

Could the files be written into a separate "target" directory as it is
done for doxygen output?
