Suppose I have file2 that is newer than file1, and file4 is older than
file3. In the trials that I did, both rules in the makefile are always
executed. I'm wonder if this is always true. Or I just happen to
observer this behavior?
.PHONY: all
all: file1 file2
file3: file4
touch file3
file1: file2
touch file1
touch file3
