This is different than changing it in your shell because Make's change is local to its process (and its subprocesses) and does not change the outside user environment. One example of where this is useful is if I am working in boost/graph, and would like to re-run the Boost.Graph test suite. With -C, all I would need to do is: bjam -C ../../libs/graph/test and the tests would be run as though I changed into that directory, ran bjam, and then changed back. I believe that this feature would be very convenient. More documentation is available at http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html#Options-Summary."
