See https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/issues/1546 - the Bash

Hrm, you said Ubuntu. /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/make exists for me
on Ubuntu 14.04. Looks like it's provided by the 'bash-completion' package

individual packages for the tools (i.e. the npm package install
I don't have a 'make' file under
/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/ but under
/etc/bash_completion.d/make (maybe a linux/debian thing).
I'll look into this file.

Thanks for the info.
I'm using fish under Ubuntu. Bash on Ubuntu does completion of make
targets from the included *.make files. I'll look into how they do it
and update the fish one if I can.

__fish_print_make_targets is a fishscript function defined in the standard
functions dir $__fish_datadir/functions. In the Fish source, this is the folder
share/functions. The current implementation is just a grep over the first file
from the list [GNUmakefile, Makefile, makefile].
