as a workaround - use mkdir -p.

Hi all!

When using this makefile:

http://www.shlomifish.org/Files/files/code/backup.mak

(Mandriva Cooker, Pentium4)

I'm getting the following:

{{{{{{{{{{{{
shlomi:~/conf/Bash/backup$ make -f backup.mak osvn
# (cd /home/shlomi/Backup/svn-dumps/opensvn/svnsync-repos/ ; bash sync-all.bash ; bash dump-all.bash)

}}}}}}}}}}}}

It also happens with a vanilla GNU make. My question is why is the directory created times and again in the osvn target?

Shlomi, so what are you working on? Working on a new wiki about unit testing fortunes in freecell? -- Ran Eilam
