In the past, definitely, but today I'm going to argue that now that -fdiagnostics-show-option is the default, we can reasonably remove that line. Consider: foo.c: In function ‘foo’: foo.c:1:18: error: unused variable ‘hello’ [-Werror=unused-variable] cc1: all warnings being treated as errors The -Werror= tag output by -fdiagnostics-show-option provides all the required information.
