Fixes the issue described in sphinx-doc/sphinx#6896 Change-Id: I6f8e6de4eaef69f699ca7b1d3b5f75cd74593a5a
Thank you for reporting. As you mentioned, make-mode (-M) is different with non-make-mode (default). This is intentionally designed behavior. So I'd not like to change this. Anyway, the change will cause incompatibility and troubles. |
Perhaps this should be mentioned in docs then? |
You're right. We have to mention about this behavior. |
Related: #6603 |
Closing in favour of #5618. A |
