Is the aim with make docs to try to make it silent, unless there are
errors, like we have done with make website?
I think this is true only if we set a silent flag. When make errors show
up, lots of times I have to look back quite a way to understand the source
of the error. If it were silent, there would certainly be less to look
back
through, but I think there would also be much less information to help
track
down the problem.
The current (new) situation with make website is that it echoes make
commands if run with a straight make website - it also displays a few
progress notifications - "Processing web site: [fr]" for example. If it's
run silent - "make -s website" it just shows those progress messages and
currently 4 errors about missing links. Try it - you might be surprised...
That's the aim to replicate with docs. Also to understand and maybe
streamline it?
