Hi Mikhail,
Getting a quieter compile out is a great idea.
But, you're right that duplicating the command line invocations is a
problem. That sets up a fragile system where we'll end up with "make"
and "make V=1" actually doing different things.
Meanwhile, the feature I've always wanted with systems like this is to
document to the user that there's the possibility of adding a "V=1" to
the command line to get the full output.
Fortunately, I'm sitting next to Chris Wilson right now, and I know that
all I need to do is to mention the idea to him, and he'll give us a
solution that doesn't duplicate the commands, documents V=1, and will
just be a tiny change to our Makefiles.
-Carl
