This functionality fits to my advanced software build needs partly.


I find the section “Static pattern rules versus implicit rules” also interesting
in the documentation.
https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Static-versus-Implicit.html

But it seems that another important detail is missing in this comparison.

* How do you choose the desired pre-requirements?

* Which file names would you specify for the parameter “prereq-patterns”?
