Hi,

In the Feedback section of the manual, we provide instructions on how to
create reproducers: https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html

The instructions are nice, but I was thinking to simplify things for the
users further.

I propose a new make target: make repro
It will run the commands we already suggest, but without a need to
create minimal file, pass all that arguments to emacs, etc

WDYT?

Best,
Ihor

Subject: [PATCH] mk: Add make target "repro" for easy bug testing

 If an error occurs, a "backtrace" can be very useful---see below on
 how to create one.  Often a small example file helps, along with clear
 information about:
