Hello,

I found a possibly wrong behaviour of goredo.

Consider the following setup:

- date.do is generating date, which holds a string presentation of the
   current date/time. This item is considered to change /often/, i.e. on
   every call to date.do, because I did include the seconds in the time
   stamp.

- version.do is generating version, which holds a git hash or something
   else. This item is regenerated always, but its content changes rarely.

- version.h.do is reading version.h.in (a template), date and version
   as considered before, and generates a C header file from these two items.

So these files exist:
$ find . | LANG=C sort
.
./all.do
./date.do
./version.do
./version.h.do
./version.h.in

Now I call redo for the first time:
  redo -xx
+ redo-ifchange version.h
+ redo-ifchange date version version.h.in
+ git rev-parse --short HEAD
+ redo-always
+ redo-stamp
redo . . version (0.005s)
+ date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S
+ redo-always
+ redo-stamp
redo . . date (0.005s)
+ cat version
+ VERSION=3f26d30
+ cat date
+ DATE=20230114_184654
+ cat version.h.in
+ sed -e s/%%VERSION%%/3f26d30/g -e s/%%DATE%%/20230114_184654/g
+ redo-stamp
redo . version.h (0.036s)
redo all (0.046s)

This looks good.

Without any change I call redo again. I expect the file date to change,
and thus version.h to be rebuild.

$ redo -xx
+ git rev-parse --short HEAD
+ redo-always
+ redo-stamp
redo . version (0.006s)
+ date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S
+ redo-always
+ redo-stamp
redo . date (0.005s)
+ redo-ifchange date version version.h.in
+ redo-ifchange date version version.h.in
+ cat version
+ VERSION=3f26d30
+ cat date
+ DATE=20230114_184812
+ cat version.h.in
+ sed -e s/%%VERSION%%/3f26d30/g -e s/%%DATE%%/20230114_184812/g
+ redo-stamp
redo . version.h (0.010s)
+ cat version
+ VERSION=3f26d30
+ cat date
+ DATE=20230114_184812
+ cat version.h.in
+ sed -e s/%%VERSION%%/3f26d30/g -e s/%%DATE%%/20230114_184812/g
+ redo-stamp
err  . version.h (0.021s): $1 was explicitly touched
+ redo-ifchange version.h
redo all (0.003s)


This does happen, however, there is an error.

It seems to me that "version.h" is considered twice, because it is
dependent on two prerequisites (date and version), however, the second
entry is never cleared from the list.

I have tried to understand the situation with "-d all", but I'm not
good enough:

$ grep 'targets: ' xx1.good.log
[6870] dbg  building 1 targets: [all]
[6880] dbg  . building 1 targets: [version.h]
[6889] dbg  . . building 3 targets: [version.h.in date version]

$ grep 'targets: ' xx2.bad.log
[6942] dbg  . checking 2 dependant targets: [date version]
[6942] dbg  . building 2 dependant targets: [version.h version.h]
[6985] dbg  . . building 3 targets: [version.h.in date version]
[6993] dbg  . . building 3 targets: [version version.h.in date]
[6942] dbg  building 1 targets: [all]
[7023] dbg  . building 1 targets: [version.h]


Please find the files I used listed below.

Thanks for providing goredo!
