Better make file dialog #11

Hi guys, Love this Carto integration concept, but we're mapping people, not deep devops. Using a makefile is a great way to stay out of installation complexities, so thanks again for providing the make option. HOWEVER: It would be appreciated to have more context for running the make:

  1. Do we need to be in any particular path inside the site install directory to run the make? Eg, should we be at (siteroot)/profiles/dkan ... or does it matter? 2.. On running the make command with the --no-core option we still get the confirmation message: "Make new site in the current directory?" Accck! Of course I want to answer [y] and take my chances...BUT what if it really tries to "install a new site" right here?? And, if location is not important, why do we get confirmation of a desired path anyway? Sorry for the clueless questions, but the make confirmation is just too worrisome!

Hi guys...can you take 30secs to answer the basic question: is it safe to "install new site" or not? I don't want to install a new site, which is why I use the --no-core option. Do I just answer yes and hope for the best? Thanks, JB
