## Historique du projet et usages

bsdmake is Apple's packaged BSD make implementation, a descendant of the Berkeley/PWB make tradition rather than GNU make. It is a compatibility package for build systems and ports that expect BSD make semantics, makefile names, variables, and system include behavior.

### Historique du projet

The Apple open-source manual page carries Regents of the University of California copyright notices from 1990 and 1993 and an SCCS marker for Berkeley make. Its HISTORY section says a `make` command appeared in PWB UNIX, placing BSD make in the long Unix build-tool lineage.

The manual documents behavior that distinguishes BSD make from a generic `make`: it reads `sys.mk`, searches for `BSDmakefile`, `makefile`, and `Makefile`, supports `.OBJDIR`, `mkdep`, BSD-style include paths under `/usr/share/mk`, and exposes debugging and compatibility flags.

### Historique d'adoption

bsdmake survives in package managers because not every makefile is written for GNU make. The provided package facts show Homebrew and MacPorts packaging, which is especially relevant on macOS where developers may need a BSD-flavored make as an explicit command.

Its adoption is mostly compatibility-driven: users install it when building older BSD-derived software, ports, or makefiles that rely on BSD make features or system makefile conventions.

### Modes d'utilisation

`bsdmake` maintains program dependencies from makefiles, with options to select makefiles, include paths, system makefile directories, variables, compatibility mode, and parallel jobs.

The command reads the first available `BSDmakefile`, `makefile`, or `Makefile`, and also reads `.depend` when available. Those defaults make it fit naturally into BSD source trees and ports-style builds.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

bsdmake matters because `make` is not one portable language in practice. Packaging BSD make separately lets build recipes declare the dialect they need instead of hoping the system `make` happens to match.

For package maintainers, it is one of those old tools that prevents a surprising amount of build breakage: boring, small, and valuable precisely because it preserves historical semantics.

### Chronologie

- PWB UNIX era: The manual page's HISTORY section says a make command appeared in PWB UNIX.
- 1990-1993: Berkeley copyright notices in the Apple manual page reflect the BSD lineage of this make implementation.
- 1995-06-13: The manual page includes a Berkeley SCCS marker for make.1 version 8.8.
- 2005-10-14: Apple's bsdmake manual page date records the documented command behavior shipped in this distribution.
- 2026: Provided package facts show bsdmake packaged by Homebrew and MacPorts.

### Related projects

- GNU make is the dominant alternative make dialect and the main compatibility contrast.
- NetBSD make, FreeBSD make, and OpenBSD make are close relatives in the BSD make family.
- mkdep and `/usr/share/mk` are part of the BSD build-system environment documented by the manual page.
