What's the origin of Picard's signature phrase, “make it so”?

    ubuntu@ip-10-0-0-252:~$ make it so
    make: *** No rule to make target 'it'.  Stop.

- "Cause it to be."

- "Arrange for things to be as we discussed."

- "Instantiate that state of affairs."

- "In regards to bringing about what we had just been describing: yes."

- "OK. Fine."

- "I've had quite a bit of tea today and I'll be in the lavatory. Please ensure our plans come about by the time I return."

- "Just do it!"

By the time the market testing team had decided the final phrase was the most successful, they realized Nike already got to it first and had to throw something in at the last minute.

Which makes perfect sense, because Picard was French.

kubectl makeitso -f stuff.yaml

terraform makeitso plan.tf

etc

There's many such Easter eggs in the series.

Such as Jean Luc Picard's name... A reference to the well-known phrase "Cup and Jar lice." The character was bald, so he didn't have lice, etc., etc. No need to repeat the story.
