meson: Use a generated depfile for gi-docgen#753
Merged
Conversation
Convert the output from "gi-docgen gen-deps", which is a list of files ingested to generate the documentation, into a format suitable to be read by Ninja (a Make snippet), and use it as the "depfile" for the documentation custom target. The transformation is done using a small Python script, which does not introduce any new dependency because gi-docgen itself already required Python to be present.
