Makefile: add option to disable automatic dependency generation
Now that the COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES feature is turned on automatically for compilers that support it (see v1.7.8-rc0~142^2~1, 2011-08-18), there is no easy way to force it off. For example, setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to the empty string in config.mak just tells the makefile to treat it as undefined and run a test command to see if the -MMD option is supported. So allow setting COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no to explicitly force the feature off. The new semantics: - "yes" means to explicitly enable the feature - "no" means to disable it - "auto" means to autodetect The default is still "auto". Any value other than these three will cause the build to error out with a descriptive message so typos and stale settings in config.mak don't result in mysterious behavior. Makefile:1278: *** please set COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES to yes, no, or auto (not "1"). Stop. So now when someone using a compiler without -MMD support reports trouble building git, you can reproduce it by running "make COMPUTE_HEADER_DEPENDENCIES=no".
