Fix is my take on a build system. It's written in Perl, and runs on GNU/Linux
and MacOS X. It tries very hard to be minimalistic, and the only dependencies
are Perl and /usr/bin/env.
It is mostly inspired by redo and git (for a more complete list of sources
of inspirations, see “Inspiration and
References.” on the
wiki).
As you can see it is not quite finished yet, but if you want to have a sense of
where it is going, you can have a look at its GitHub wiki
pages, or the TODO. – If you want to
know how it works, fetch the fix program, make sure its executable, and
run fix --help and fix --man to look at the documentation (or just play
around with it for a bit).
I've mostly put this repository here in order to have somewhere to point people who have expressed an interest. More to come.
