+# This is the top-level makefile for building NetBSD. For an outline of
+# how to build a snapshot or release, as well as other release engineering
+# information, see http://www.netbsd.org/developers/releng/index.html
+#
+# Not everything you can set or do is documented in this makefile. In
+# particular, you should review the files in /usr/share/mk (especially
+# bsd.README) for general information on building programs and writing
+# Makefiles within this structure, and see the comments in src/etc/Makefile
+# for further information on installation and release set options.
+#
+# Variables listed below can be set on the make command line (highest
+# priority), in /etc/mk.conf (middle priority), or in the environment
+# (lowest priority).
+#
+# Variables:
+#   NBUILDJOBS is the number of jobs to start in parallel during a
+#	'make build'. It defaults to 1.
+#   MKMAN, if set to `no', will prevent building of manual pages.
+#   MKSHARE, if set to `no', will prevent building and installing
+#	anything in /usr/share.
+#   UPDATE will avoid a `make cleandir' at the start of `make build',
+#	as well as having the effects listed in /usr/share/mk/bsd.README.
+#   DESTDIR is the target directory for installation of the compiled
+#	software. It defaults to /. Note that programs are built against
+#	libraries installed in DESTDIR.
+#
+# Targets:
+#   build: builds a full release of netbsd in DESTDIR.
+#   release: does a `make build,' and then tars up the DESTDIR files
+#	into RELEASEDIR, in release(7) format. (See etc/Makefile for
+#	more information on this.)
+#   snapshot: a synonym for release.
