Follow-up Comment #2, bug #65438 (group make): I think the term "sort" isn't really correct here: from the user's point of view they simply see the output in a different, and deterministic, but still more or less random, order than they did before. I doubt most users will be able to map the output they see onto the input make reads except in simple situations. When you start having lots of include files etc. it becomes hard to follow.
Question: why not just _actually_ sort the output so the results are ordered by pathname of the target instead of by order discovered? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65438> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
