This should probably read "Install everything other than documentation", to mirror "all" above. (Otherwise one might think it installs just the backend.)
install-doc-html Install documentation in multi-page HTML format install-doc-man Install documentation in man page format install-docs Install documentation in multi-page HTML and man page formats
There is a mismatch between "docs" and "install-docs". (As was previously discussed, I'm in the camp that "docs" should be html + man.)
install-quiet Like "install", but installed files are not displayed install-world Install postgres, including multi-page HTML and man page documentation
Suggest "Install everything, including documentation" (matches "world").
uninstall Remove installed files Other Targets: clean Remove all build products test Run all enabled tests (including contrib) world Build everything, including documentation
Shouldn't that be under "Code Targets"?
