Description

C and C++ source dependencies can be generated for Makefile-based builds. It helps developers keep rebuild rules accurate when header files change, reducing stale builds and missing recompilation.

This is a build helper, not a user-facing app. It is most useful in older or custom build systems that still rely on Makefile dependency generation.
