in make, if in my Makefile I have
FOO = 1
FOO += 2
test:
echo $(FOO)
then running:
> make
1 2
> make FOO=3
3
That is, if passed in the command line, any assignments to FOO are
ignored. In Makefile, this can be changed by using the 'override'
method. It is not that important, just an idiom that people coming from
Make expect. Obviously, Rakefile being Ruby this sort of behavior can be
done.

Is there a way to get make-like behavior for variables? Meaning, that

Can you give an example of what you want?
