2020-01-11	Corrected markdown code notations in one README.md	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-4/+4
	In markdown, to specify that part of the text should be shown as code we need to put it between two `. But in `reproduce/software/make/README.md', the code parts started with ` and finished in ' (like the file name above). With this commit, this has been corrected and it will display properly on web browsers.
2019-10-30	Tarballs set as order-only prerequisites, not needed for build calls	Mohammad Akhlaghi	-0/+33
	Until now, the tarballs were the first normal prerequisite of the software. As a result if their date changed, the whole software would be re-built. However, for tarballs specifically, we actually check their contents with a checksum, so their date is irrelevant (if its newer than the built program, but has the same checksum, there is no need to re-build the software). Also, calling the tarball name as an argument to the building process (for example `gbuild') was redundant. It is now automatically found from the list of order-only prerequisites within `gbuild' and `cbuild' (similar to how it was previously found in the `pybuild' for Python building). A `README.md' file has also been placed in `reproduce/software/make' to help describe the shared properties of the software building Makefiles. This will hopefully grow much larger in the future.
