Makefile has local changes that will be overwritten

[Programmingkid]

When trying to build QEMU I see this error:

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by 
checkout:
        Makefile
Please commit your changes or stash them before you switch branches.
Aborting

What I do to see this error:
./configure --target-list=i386-softmmu

I did some bisecting and found out this is the patch that causes the problem:

commit 7d7dbf9dc15be6e1465c756c2c5ae7f1ab104fc8

    configure: replace --enable/disable-git-update with --with-git-submodules
    
    Replace the --enable-git-update and --disable-git-update configure params
    with the param --with-git-submodules=(update|validate|ignore) to
    allow 3 options for building from a git repo.
