-# Sinks all input to /dev/null
+# `sink` - sinks all input to /dev/null

+# Targets:
+# `sink` (default): stripped `release` target. output: `sink`
+# `release`: optimised build. output: `sink-release`
+# `debug`: unoptimised build with debuginfo. output: `sink-debug`
+# `clean`: remove all previous object and binary output files
+#
+# Environment variables:
+# * `SHARED` - set to "yes" to prevent passing `--static` to cc
+# * `TARGET_ARCH` - target arch (`-march=`), or set `TARGET_ARCH=` to force set to generic target. (default [release only]: `native`)
+# * `CFLAGS`, `COMMON_FLAGS` - passthrough to cc
+# * `LDFLAGS` - passthrough to ld
+# * `DEBUG_CFLAGS`, `DEBUG_LDFLAGS` - passthrough to cc / ld on target `debug`
+# * `RELEASE_CFLAGS`, `RELEASE_LDFLAGS` - passthrough to cc / ld on target `release`
+#
+# Make overridable only:
+# * `STRIP` - Strip command for default output (stripped release) target (`make sink`). set `make STRIP=:` to prevent stripping entirely. (NOTE: When using `make install`, `STRIP=:` will not work, instead, paradoxically, set `STRIP=true`, they have the same effect for all targets)
