It is a small but package-relevant tool because Makefiles are ubiquitous, and checkmake gives them the kind of static analysis that shell scripts, YAML, and source code often already receive. ### Projektgeschichte The checkmake/checkmake repository was created in August 2016 and describes the project as a linter and analyzer for Makefiles. The README says it scans one or more Makefiles for potential issues according to configurable rules. The project was inspired by an idea from Dan Buch, according to the README, and later moved into the checkmake GitHub organization while retaining older badge references to the original mrtazz/checkmake namespace. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The official README documents installation with Go, prebuilt releases, packages, packagecloud, Homebrew-style package-manager use through batch metadata, and official container images on quay.io. It also provides pre-commit hook configuration for repository-level adoption. The README notes that checkmake is natively embedded in MegaLinter, which makes it available inside a broader multi-language linting workflow even when users do not install it directly. ### Wie es verwendet wird Typical usage is to run checkmake against Makefile, GNUmakefile, or *.mk inputs and receive text or JSON reports. The CLI supports a default checkmake.ini configuration file, listing rules, and custom output templates. In CI and pre-commit workflows, checkmake is used to catch missing phony declarations and similar Makefile maintainability issues before they are merged. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren checkmake is package-nerd interesting because it lints one of the oldest build-description formats still found in modern repositories. It is also a tidy example of a Go CLI distributed through source install, binary releases, containers, packagecloud, Homebrew, MacPorts, Nix, and distro packages. Its presence in pre-commit and MegaLinter shows the common path from standalone command to plumbing inside larger developer-tool aggregators. ### Zeitleiste - 2016: checkmake/checkmake repository created. - 2022: 0.2.1 release published on GitHub. - 2023: 0.2.2 release used in the official pre-commit example. - 2026: v0.3.x releases published, showing renewed maintenance. ### Related projects - pre-commit is an adjacent integration surface documented by the project. - MegaLinter embeds checkmake for Makefile linting, and GNU Make is the input format the tool analyzes. ### Quellen - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
