That will let you get the settings from the last time you set things up,
but it begs the question, which is having those settings co-exist in the
same session with other settings for other work.  The way to do the
latter is to make the settings buffer-local.  A good method is to do
this in a mode hook; you can even have the mode hook look at the path
and set the build command accordingly.
