[makefile] How do you get the list of targets in a makefile?

My favorite answer to this was posted by Chris Down at Unix & Linux Stack Exchange. I'll quote.

This is how the bash completion module for make gets its list:

make -qp | awk -F':' '/^[a-zA-Z0-9][^$#\/\t=]*:([^=]|$)/ {split($1,A,/ /);for(i in A)print A[i]}'

It prints out a newline-delimited list of targets, without paging.

User Brainstone suggests piping to sort -u to remove duplicate entries:

make -qp | awk -F':' '/^[a-zA-Z0-9][^$#\/\t=]*:([^=]|$)/ {split($1,A,/ /);for(i in A)print A[i]}' | sort -u
