When we check dependencies and a previously-is_generated dependency
existed before, but no longer does, forget that it was is_generated.
This slightly improves the situation where as a project evolves, a file
that used to be a target gets removed, and then later is re-added as a
static source file. (It doesn't fix the other variant, where a file is
changed from target to source in a single atomic change, and is never
missing. That one will be trickier to handle.)
While adding a test for this behaviour, I discovered that redo-sources,
redo-targets, and redo-ood were reporting their output relative to
STARTDIR instead of relative to $PWD, so fix that too.
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.
