[PATCH v2 1/2] Allow generating a non-default set of documentation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



By default, "make doc" generates the manpages and htmldocs in the
Documentation directory, but you may want to change this depending
on the target environment, e.g. to include 'pdf'.  Introduce a new
Makefile variable DEFAULT_DOC_TARGET to allow customizing this.

The primary motivation is to let us check documentation patches with

    $ DEFAULT_DOC_TARGET=git-push.1 make doc

but it is not so far-fetched to imagine that Windows users may want to
omit manpages with

    $ DEFAULT_DOC_TARGET=html make doc

or somesuch.  It won't be useful without additional support to tweak
the format installed by default via DEFAULT_DOC_INSTALL_TARGET, though.
