# 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](http://cr.yp.to/redo.html). 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:
```sh
./do -j10 test
```

To install it, run something like this:
```sh
DESTDIR= PREFIX=/usr/local ./do -j10 install
```
