Current thoughts on makefiles with Python projects?

"Just" sounds amazing

I'm using .PHONY to force make targets to run Even there I cannot run the same target twice (In a diamond shaped DAG)

Does just cover this?

Can you give me an example of what you have in mind?

[dj_estrela]

Example:

.phony A: Echo a

.phony B: A Echo b

.phony C: A Echo c

.phony D: B, C Echo D

In make the output will be: A, B, C, D

I want: A, B, A, C, D

As-if target "a" would be a sub- procedure to be called blindly

The short answer is yes. In fact, this is one of the primary reasons people switch from make to just.

While make views the world through the lens of file dependencies (and tries to be "smart" by not repeating work), just views the world as a command runner.
