I agree that the long single line that installs the commands to $(bindir) may be somewhat annoying. Cleaning up compilation step is one thing; by tidying up the output it makes compiler warnings stand out. But I do not like playing games like this in general in installation rule. An excerpt from your patch: > + @echo installing programs > + $(QUIET)$(foreach p,$(BUILT_INS), rm -f ... This would not even let you see what got installed. At least, less verbose compilation step we have these days lets you see what is being built. I certainly would not object if the output would look like this, though: CC builtin-cat-file.o ... GEN git-add--interactive ... LINK git-http-push ... BUILTIN git-add ... MKDIR -p /usr/local/bin INSTALL git-foo INSTALL git-bar ...
