.. _quit:

Gentle termination or `remake` (`quit`)
---------------------------------------

**quit** [ *exit-code* ]

Exit `remake`. If a numeric argument is given, it will be the exit
status reported back. A status of 77 in a nested make will signals
termination in the parent. So if no numeric argument is given and
`MAKELEVEL` is 0, then status 0 is set; otherwise it is 77.
