Is there a way of stopping the makes if there was a problem.
(additions in-line)
You might want to try 'man bash'. Doing something based on the return
status of a command is pretty basic. Also, TMTOWTDI:
if [ $? -ne 0 ] ; then exit $? ; fi
if [ $? -eq 0 ] ; then : ; else exit $? ; fi
if ! make > log ; then exit $? ; fi
if make > log ; then : ; else exit $? ; fi
make > log || exit $?
Note that using 'exit $?' is good practice because it means your
*script* will fail, which means you can embed your *script* like you've
embedded 'make' and take action based on if it succeeds or fails (this
is ALWAYS good practice in the pipe-biased environment of UNIX).
However, be careful that you don't do something that replaces $? with
the exit status of someone other than 'make' (in which case you should
either save the status or 'exit <non-zero constant>').
