RunCommand merged stderr into stdout, dropped pclose's status and returned
the text; every compile, link and archive site then read "printed something"
as "failed". A warning is printing something, so a translation unit that
warned failed the build — but only on the run that actually recompiled it,
since warnings aren't re-emitted for an object that's already up to date.
The same unchanged source therefore passed or failed depending on the state
of the build tree: flaky-looking tests locally, and a cold CI checkout
surfacing every latent warning in a project at once as unrelated failures.
RunCommand is gone, replaced by RunBuildCommand: it goes through
RunCommandChecked, returns "" when the command exited 0 (so every caller's
`if (!result.empty())` error path is unchanged) and hands any warnings to
the new Progress::Diagnostic instead of to the error path. That also closes
the quiet half of the bug — a compiler killed by the OOM killer prints
nothing, so it used to read as success and leave the build carrying on with
a missing object; it now reports the signal that killed it.
Warnings are now shown rather than swallowed, which they weren't in either
direction before: invisible on an incremental build, fatal on a cold one.
Failing on them stays a project's choice, via -Werror in compileFlags.
The staleness check compared an artifact against its own source and its
module imports. Headers were in neither set: the scanner reads `import`
lines, and a .cppm or .cpp keeps its mtime when a header it includes is
edited — so the build reported nothing to do and left objects compiled
against the previous contents. Same silent mixed-layout binary as issue
27, reached through #include instead of import.
Ask the compiler what it actually opened. Every C++ and C compile now
passes -MD -MF <artifact>.d, and Check reads that depfile back through
NewestPrerequisite, comparing every prerequisite's mtime against the
artifact. A missing depfile (an object from a crafter-build that wrote
none) or a prerequisite that no longer exists reads as "rebuild": neither
is evidence of freshness.
The parser unescapes make syntax rather than splitting on whitespace,
since clang wraps depfiles onto continuation lines and escapes spaces in
filenames.
