Right now the Makefile looks like:
...
world: pre-world hierarchy mk $(WORLD_CLEANDIST) bootstrap include-tools includes lib-tools libraries build-tools
@echo "--------------------------------------------------------------"
@echo " Rebuilding ${DESTDIR} The whole thing"
@echo "--------------------------------------------------------------"
@echo
cd ${.CURDIR} && ${MAKE} depend all install
cd ${.CURDIR}/share/man && ${MAKE} makedb
.if target(post-world)
cd ${.CURDIR} && ${MAKE} post-world
.endif
@echo "make world completed on `date`"
...
However, it is often times nice to have something that I can do to
rebuild the world when I know that it is safe to do so. Sure, I can
just do a make depend all install followed by a makedb, but wouldn't
it be nicer if there was a rebuild target? The above would look like:
...
world: pre-world hierarchy mk $(WORLD_CLEANDIST) bootstrap include-tools includes lib-tools libraries build-tools rebuild
.if target(post-world)
cd ${.CURDIR} && ${MAKE} post-world
.endif
@echo "make world completed on `date`"
rebuild:
@echo "--------------------------------------------------------------"
@echo " Rebuilding ${DESTDIR} The whole thing"
@echo "--------------------------------------------------------------"
@echo
cd ${.CURDIR} && ${MAKE} depend all install
cd ${.CURDIR}/share/man && ${MAKE} makedb
...
Comments?
