That way the user can modify an auto-generated 'compile' script, for
example, and it'll stay modified.
If they delete the file, we can then generate it for them again.
Also, we have to warn whenever we're doing this, or people might think it's
a bug.
It's really a separate condition. And since we're not removing the target
*file* in case of error - we update it atomically, and keeping it is better
than losing it - there's no reason to wipe the timestamp in that case
either.
However, we do need to know that the build failed, so that anybody else
(especially in a parallel build) who looks at that target knows that it
died. So add a separate flag just for that.
In flush-cache.sh, we have to do this, because the sqlite3 command-line tool
sets it to zero. Inevitably during parallel testing, it'll end up
contending for a lock, and we really want it to wait a bit.
In state.py, it's not as important since the default is nonzero. But
python-sqlite3's default of 5 seconds makes me a little too nervous; I can
imagine a disk write waiting for more than 5 seconds sometime. So let's use
60 instead.
It passes all tests when run serialized, but still gives weird errors
(OperationalError: database is locked) when run with -j5. sqlite3 shouldn't
be barfing just because the database is locked, since the default timeout is
5 seconds, and it's dying *way* faster than that.
We had a bug (fixed in the previous commit) where doing 'redo-ifchange
dirname' (which runs dirname/all.do) would not create the stamp correctly,
so that it would always show up as dirty.
It's a little bit complicated to simulate, but this does it.
Unfortunately it failed before the previous patch, so that's why this test
is needed :(
The test is a little ugly, because the bug I'm testing for didn't happen
except if you ran 'redo' two times in a row, not two times inside the same
redo session. That's because dependency caching inside the one session
prevents the accidental rebuild.
