This one is annoying me.
I don't care if it updates .config. But it does so *noisily*, so now my build scripts en dup having extra noise coming out from them in the form of another
scripts/kconfig/conf --syncconfig Kconfig # # configuration written to .config #
which is just distracting me and doesn't seem to add any value at all.
Ok, so it happens because I for legacy reasons have a "made dep" that isn't useful any more (but my fingers have that as the "let's do a kernel build" now macro), but it does seem to be entirely pointless. Why make that big noise about something that doesn't even *do* anything?
