Make apenwarr/redo installable on windows and work with uv tool install
Find a file
Avery Pennarun e5a27f04e8 If redo searched all the way up to /default.do, it would run ./default.do instead.
This only happened if the containing project was buggy, ie. you tried
to build a target that has no .do file available anywhere. However, it
resulted in a confusing outcome for that case, where we'd run the wrong
default.do file with the wrong parameters.

Extended an existing test to catch this mistake.

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.
