Follow-up Comment #1, bug #43550 (project make):

"foo" in the Makefile refers to the directory "foo".  Because the directory
has no prerequisites, it is considered up to date as long as it exists
(up-to-date means newer than all prerequisites).

In general, non-phony targets should update a single rule with same name as
the target, so what you probably want is:

foo/foo: foo/foo.cpp
    g++ -o $@ $<

The $@ and $< are shorthand for the rule target and the first prerequisite,
respectively.
