REDO-SOURCES(1)

okay so bestie, this is REDO-SOURCES(1), a.k.a. the General Commands Manual page for redo-sources — tiny command, big “list my sources” energy ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

redo-sources — print list of redo(1) sources 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

redo-sources

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so redo(1) is that build tool bestie — it builds files, and it rebuilds them if any of their dependencies have changed. no cap.

redo-sources prints the list of redo(1) sources that exist in the current directory and its subdirectories. A source is a file that has been listed as a dependency of another file using redo-ifchange(1) but can not be built with redo(1). that’s the whole definition, periodt.

👑 important vibe check: files that do not exist are not listed, because they might not be sources anymore.

example time, bestie: if you declare a dependency on a file using redo-ifchange(1) and later remove the file and create a dofile to generate it, it will not be listed. the tool is not trying to read your mind, okay? 😭

redo-sources may break if the target filename contains a tab or a newline. yeah. tabs and newlines are little gremlins here 🙈 keep that in mind.
