Implementation notes ¶
Since there are no strict rules about redo behaviour, here are some
remarks about goredo’s one:
- all target is default
- stdout is always captured, but no target is created if it
was empty
- non-existent targets are considered always out of date
- .do’s $3 is relative path to the file in target directory
- .do search goes up to / by default, but can be
limited with either
$REDO_TOP_DIR environment variable, or by
having .redo/top file in it
- target’s completion messages are written after they finish
- executable .do is run as is, non-executable is run with
/bin/sh -e[x]
- tracing (-x) can be obviously done only for
non-executable .do
- parallizable build is done only during
redo-ifchange for
human convenience: you can globally enable $REDO_JOBS, but
still do for example: redo htmls infos index upload
