The rendered version does not seem to have the new additions yet. Looks okay otherwise.

This should be Target. The plural is "Target Additions".

Ah, sorry about that, the workflow is still not perfect, looks like a race condition that needs fixing.

I'm not very happy with the title, but I can't think of anything else.

Non-native English speakers often have trouble with the meaning of the word "generic".

4662 ↗(On Diff #6647)

Is there some kind of continuation of this sentence after the list? Seems incomplete.

What would you propose ?

4662 ↗(On Diff #6654)

I basically copied the previous section and replaced, variable with target :-)

Good question. Need more description of these targets to make a guess. What are these targets? "General-Purpose"?

4662 ↗(On Diff #6654)

It's only the first half of a sentence.

For any of these targets:
a
b
c

And then it ends. Or Phabricator doesn't show it. But it seems to start, show some targets, and then doesn't say anything about them or what they are.

Mmmm, well, the ports tree provide targets, like pre-extract, post-configure, post-install, so that you can add things before or after the normal building process of the software, so that it fetches/extracts/patches/builds/... correctly. These helpers are here to help you add to these targets when enabling or disabling options. It's explained in the summary of D2944.

4662 ↗(On Diff #6654)

Well, the end of the sentence is the two sub-sections after.

"Additional Build Targets"?

4673 ↗(On Diff #7169)

The confusion is because it says:

For any of these targets:

...list...

The following build targets can be used.

That is really one sentence, and capitalizing "The" makes it look like a second sentence. Better to split those apart:

These <filename>Makefile</filename> targets can accept optional extra build targets:

...list...

The additional build targets are listed below.
