Make apenwarr/redo installable on windows and work with uv tool install
Find a file
Avery Pennarun 39e017869d Ensure correct operation with read-only target dirs and .do file dirs.
Although I expect this is rather rare, some people may want to build in
a read-write subdir of a read-only tree.  Other than some confusing
error reporting, this works fine in redo after the recent changes to
temp file handling, but let's add a test to make sure it stays that
way.  The test found a bug in minimal/do, so let's fix that.

redo - a recursive build system

Smaller, easier, more powerful, and more reliable than make.

This is an implementation of Daniel J. Bernstein's redo build system. He never released his version, so other people have implemented different variants based on his published specification.

This version, sometimes called apenwarr/redo, is probably the most advanced one, including support for parallel builds, improved logging, and helpful debugging features.

To build and test redo, run ./do -j10 test. To install it, run DESTDIR=/tmp/testinstall PREFIX=/usr/local ./do -j10 install.
