Brian Mastenbrook@bmastenbrook·Mar 24, 2021Replying to @thingskatedidthe last time I looked into this, GNU Make was one of the biggest hurdles. the closest I could find to a compatible replacement is http://makepp.sourceforge.net but I have no idea how well it works11
Kate@thingskatedid·Mar 24, 2021Replying to @bmastenbrookpersonally I like BSD make, but few other people do1
Brian Mastenbrook@bmastenbrook·Mar 24, 2021Replying to @thingskatedidah, I was answering from the perspective of compatibility. there’s a lot of Makefiles out there with GNU-isms11
Daniel Micay@DanielMicayReplying to @bmastenbrook and @thingskatedidThere's also https://github.com/google/kati aimed at massively speed up incremental builds for GNU make projects. There's some interesting documentation on the motivation and compromises it makes at https://github.com/google/kati/blob/master/INTERNALS.md…. Google will lose interest in it soon. It'd need a fork.github.comkati/INTERNALS.md at master · google/katiAn experimental GNU make clone.
