On native windows, there are no mechanisms for automatic generation for Makefile 
and need to edit it by hand.
I usually store the changes into the diff file and restore the changes by patch command at each cloning file image.

I attached the above patch, situation will be better but is not complete yet,
I met the error below in both MikTeX on windows and TeXLive2021 on the cygwin64.

****************************************************************************
(gpinsetfigure.tex

! LaTeX Error: Command \gpinsetfigure already defined.
               Or name \end... illegal, see p.192 of the manual.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...

l.6 }
