General issue report

Perhaps a trivial question this, but I don't understand it fully.

I am building my application using idf.py for an esp32-c6 device.

When I do idf.py set-target esp32c6 , this will load the configurations from my sdkconfig.defaults.esp32c6 file right?

Then to build the application : idf.py build.

Does the normal sdkconfig.defaults file get taken into consideration here also?

Yes, both files are considered: first the options from sdkconfig.defaults are applied, then the options from sdkconfig.defaults.TARGET.

Please see this documentation section for more details: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/build-system.html#target-dependent-sdkconfig-defaults
