Tup. https://gittup.org/tup/ https://gittup.org/tup/make_vs_tup.html

But the Internet’s make mind-share means you still have to know make.

Edit: and make lets you use make to essentially run scripts/utils. People love to abuse make for that. Can’t do that with tup.

> Tup.

I don't think Tup managed to present any case. Glancing at the page, the only conceivable synthetic scenarios where they can present Tup in a positive light is built times of > 10k files, and only in a synthetic scenario involving recompiling partially built projects. And what's the upside of those synthetic scenarios? Shaving w couple of seconds in rebuilds? That's hardly a compelling scenario.

Abuse? Runnig linters, code analysers, configuration tools, template engines, spellcheckers, pulling dependencies, building dependencies with different build systems.

Sufficiently complex project need to invole alot of wierd extra scripts, and if a build system cannot fulfil it... the n it needs to be wrapped in a complex bash script anyway.
