I make a change, compile it, and then git commit it. On machine 2 and also on machine 3, I have to git pull, and then compile. Then I have to launch the codes that test it. Machine 1 runs something, machine 2 runs something, machine 3 runs something, etc. That's why I like having multiple terminals in my emacs session; in one frame I have all of my code buffers. In the other frame, I have all of my terminals (ssh'd into machine 2, machine 3 and one for machine 1). From there, I can launch the respective codes, git pull, and compile. You can't do that with M-x compile. So basically, you tried to be pedantic, and were *wrong* with your stupid suggestion.
