Follow-up Comment #8, bug #62929 (project make): Might I add on the last comment, as I can't find an edit button.
I think: if the intention of not using dot-leading targets as default goal is to *ignore hidden file targets* when looking for default goal, then the behavior of treating target './b' as 'b' is correct; it's just that the manual didn't spell out this intention so it is confusing what exactly are ignored; everything syntactically matching? or there's some semantic intention here. On the other hand, the target '...../b' should be treated as a 'b' file under directory '.....' and thus is not a hidden file so this behavior is also correct. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?62929> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
