Move the mostly copy/pasted code in the "Makefile" and
"Documentation/Makefile" which FORCE-generates a file based on a
variable in play in the Makefile to use a template.
This will make it easier later on to move these to rules that aren't
FORCE-run using optional gmake 4.2+ features, but for now just getting
rid of the repetition is worth it.
The message for the new generated rule will say whether or not we're
generating the file for the first time, as opposed to the old messages
saying "new" whether we had flag modifications, or were building for
the first time.
Example output before:
$ make clean
[...]
$ make
GIT_VERSION = 2.34.0-rc1-dev
* new build flags
CC grep.o
$ make CFLAGS=-I$RANDOM grep.o
* new build flags
CC grep.o
After:
$ make clean
[...]
$ make grep.o
GIT_VERSION = 2.34.0-rc1-dev
GIT-CFLAGS PARAMETERS (new)
CC grep.o
$ make CFLAGS=-I$RANDOM grep.o
GIT-CFLAGS PARAMETERS (changed)
CC grep.o
Note: It's important that "@FLAGS" here be defined as '$$($(2))', and
not the eagerly expanded '$($(2))'. The latter will break if
e.g. curl-config isn't installed, since we'll end up recursively
expanding that part of the variable even if NO_CURL isn't defined,
which happens e.g. for the "check-docs" target in CI.
We're also introducing a $(wspfx) variable here to control the
whitespace prefixing. It matches the $(QUIET...) variables, who'll be
using these variables in a subsequent commit. Note that it's important
that we call the shell quote escaping macros inline (or equivalent),
because if we'd like variables to be overridable we need to support e.g.:
$ make CFLAGS=-I$RANDOM grep.o wspfx='$(space)->'
-> GIT-CFLAGS PARAMETERS (changed)
CC grep.o
If we simply quoted and used $(wspfx) then the user would need to
provide us with a quoted version, so there's still some use-cases for
these $(*_sq) variables. It could also be done inline, but that's a
lot more verbose.
