Just to reiterate my understanding...

The advantage of "qmake myproject.pro" is a new Makefile will be created under Linux, adjusting any relative paths for the destination path the source code was checked-out into ?  

The Makefile should not be versioned controlled.

I will only need to specify which Qt qmake version to add to the path in the build machine environment,.
