Package: rake (12.3.1-3 deb10u1)

ruby make-like utility

Rake is a simple ruby build program with capabilities similar to make.

Rake has the following features:

  * Rakefiles (rakes version of Makefiles) are completely defined in
    standard Ruby syntax. No XML files to edit. No quirky Makefile
    syntax to worry about (is that a tab or a space?)
  * Users can specify tasks with prerequisites.
  * Rake supports rule patterns to sythesize implicit tasks.
  * Rake is lightweight. It can be distributed with other
    projects as a single file. Projects that depend upon
    rake do not require that rake be installed on target
    systems.
