Is it possible to have a Makefile referenced by a simlink, and try calling action using make?
I am experiencing that calling make in a directory where Makefile is a simlink, Makefile is not found.
I have a need to reduce replication of Makefiles, and I would prefer using simlinks.
Suggestions?

It should work just fine:
test/ ├── Makefile └── mylink -> Makefile cd test make -f mylink Hello cat mylink all: @echo "Hello"
