# The $(WRITE_IFCHANGED) program reads a file from stdin, and writes it to the
# file named in argv[1], but does so atomically, but more importantly, does so
# in a way that does not bump the file's ctime if the new content is the same
# as the old content.
#
# That is, the following lines are almost equivalient:
#
# ... > $@
# ... | $(WRITE_ATOMIC) $@
