I've encountered situations where even that is not quite enough, as 
packages and locally installed python bits are left lying around. I 
usually do:

$ cd devstack
$ ./unstack.sh
$ ./clean.sh
$ cp local.conf ../scripts # save it somewhere if I'm happy with it
$ cd ..
$ rm -rf devstack
$ sudo rm -rf /opt/stack

If I'm wanting to clone and then switch to a different branch from what 
I've just been using then I've occasionally had to nuke the various 
libraries etc added under /usr/local (obviously this assumes the vm/box 
is used purely for devstack thus nothing in here is vital to keep):

$ cd /usr/local
$ sudo rm -rf lib/python2.7/dist-packages/* site_ruby/* bin/*

Finally reboot to be sure ;-)

$ sudo reboot


...and all ready to cloen and start stacking again!
