Avery Pennarun 613fcb1c34 minimal/do: use 'pwd -P' instead of '/bin/pwd'.
On MacOS (at least 10.11.6), /bin/pwd defaults to using $PWD (ie.  pwd
-L).  On most other OSes it defaults to *not* using $PWD (ie.  pwd -P).
We need the latter behaviour.  It appears that 'pwd -P' has been
specified by POSIX for quite a few years now, so let's rely on it.
shelltest.od will now also check for it, though if your 'sh' doesn't
support this feature, it'll be too late, because shelltest needs
minimal/do in order to run.

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 parallel builds, improved logging, extensive automated tests, 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.
