Description
preflash
is a command that is (sometimes) run before flashing. Now, if it is always run before flashing, then it makes more sense to make it part of the flashing procedure itself.For the sake of simplicity, I would like to remove this target. The only places where it is used in the ESP32 port (which I'm working to fix with @cladmi ) and in the bossa tool.
In the latter, it is used for setting the TTY mode, but that is better done in the flash script itself.
In the ESP32 port, the presence of PREFLASH seems to have introduced more confusion and led to a sub-optimal makefile.
