I prefer a help rule in the Makefile, like so:
help:
@grep -P '^[a-zA-Z_-]+:.*?## .*$$' $(MAKEFILE_LIST) | sort | awk 'BEGIN {FS = ":.*?## "}; {printf "\033[36m%-20s\033[0m %s\n", $$1, $$2}'
Assuming that the trimmed Makefile read: build: ## Build the binary
clean: ## Clean the binary and intermediate files
distclean: clean ## Clean dependencies, intermediate files and binary
deps: ## Install dependencies
all: deps build ## Get dependencies and build binary
release: distclean all ## distclean + all
Now issuing make help would display: all Get dependencies and build binary
build Build the binary
clean Clean the binary and intermediate files
deps Install dependencies
distclean Clean dependencies, intermediate files and binary
release distclean + all
