compilation-ask-about-save is a variable defined in `compile.el'.
Its value is t
Documentation:
Non-nil means M-x compile asks which buffers to save before compiling.
Otherwise, it saves all modified buffers without asking.
You can customize this variable.
Aquí está la función recompile, que demuestra que también usa la variable compilation-ask-about-save:
(defun recompile (&optional edit-command)
"Re-compile the program including the current buffer.
If this is run in a Compilation mode buffer, re-use the arguments from the
original use. Otherwise, recompile using `compile-command'.
If the optional argument `edit-command' is non-nil, the command can be edited."
(interactive "P")
(save-some-buffers (not compilation-ask-about-save)
compilation-save-buffers-predicate)
(let ((default-directory (or compilation-directory default-directory))
(command (eval compile-command)))
(when edit-command
(setq command (compilation-read-command (or (car compilation-arguments)
command)))
(if compilation-arguments (setcar compilation-arguments command)))
(apply 'compilation-start (or compilation-arguments (list command)))))

save-some-buffers is an interactive compiled Lisp function in
`files.el'.
It is bound to C-x s.
(save-some-buffers &optional ARG PRED)
Save some modified file-visiting buffers. Asks user about each one.
You can answer `y' to save, `n' not to save, `C-r' to look at the
buffer in question with `view-buffer' before deciding or `d' to
view the differences using `diff-buffer-with-file'.
This command first saves any buffers where `buffer-save-without-query' is
non-nil, without asking.
Optional argument (the prefix) non-nil means save all with no questions.
Optional second argument PRED determines which buffers are considered:
If PRED is nil, all the file-visiting buffers are considered.
If PRED is t, then certain non-file buffers will also be considered.
If PRED is a zero-argument function, it indicates for each buffer whether
to consider it or not when called with that buffer current.
See `save-some-buffers-action-alist' if you want to
change the additional actions you can take on files.
