The change to Documentation/Makefile makes sense, but what then is the
point of the second half of this hunk from your original:
@@ -2468,10 +2476,10 @@ $(XDIFF_LIB): $(XDIFF_OBJS)
$(VCSSVN_LIB): $(VCSSVN_OBJS)
$(QUIET_AR)$(RM) $@ && $(AR) rcs $@ $(VCSSVN_OBJS)
-export DEFAULT_EDITOR DEFAULT_PAGER
+export DEFAULT_EDITOR DEFAULT_PAGER DEFAULT_DOC_TARGET
doc:
- $(MAKE) -C Documentation all
+ $(MAKE) -C Documentation $(DEFAULT_DOC_TARGET)
man:
$(MAKE) -C Documentation man
We know that "all" is simply a redirect to DEFAULT_DOC_TARGET internally
within the documentation Makefile, and we know that it is propagated by
the export line above. I do not think it creates the wrong behavior,
but it is unnecessary, and omitting a target at all demonstrates to a
reader how they can get the same behavior from within Documentation
(namely by running just "make").
