depRule

This rule is useful when you want to specify that a target depends on
another target but you do not want to execute any script to build it.

Creates and maintains a build process for complex analytic tasks in R.
Package allows to easily generate Makefile for the (GNU) 'make' tool, which drives the build process
by (in parallel) executing build commands in order to update results accordingly to given dependencies
on changed data or updated source files.

depRule function

<dl><dt>target</dt>
<dd>Target file name that depends on <code>depends</code></dd>
<dt>depends</dt>
<dd>A character vector of prerequisite file names that <code>target</code> depends on.</dd>
<dt>task</dt>
<dd>A character vector of parent task names. The mechanism of tasks
allows grouping rules. Anything different from <code>'all'</code> will
cause the creation of a new task depending on the given rule.
Executing <code>make taskname</code> will then force building this rule.</dd></dl>
