What is the difference between gcc -ggdb and gcc -g

$

When I use gcc to compile C programs I usually use -g to get some debug information into the elf file so that gdb can help me if needed.

However, I noticed that some programs use -ggdb, since it's supposed to make the debug info more gdb friendly.

How do they differ and which is recommended to use?
