On a few of our projects, we made added a "refresh" target that did:
- rm -fv $(BUILD_DIR)/.root $(BUILD_DIR)/*/.stamp_target_installed
- force the target skeleton copy done when making the "$(BUILD_DIR)/.root"
target
+ this copied all the skeleton files
- normal make
+ this re-installed everything ... in case a selected custom package
installed a file on top of a default file living in the skeleton.
We used this feature quite often, since target skeleton was part of
what was updated from time to time as part of project development.
