Detailed Comparison

SCons	Redo
It is an Open Source software construction tool—that is, a next-generation build tool. Think of it as an improved, cross-platform substitute for the classic Make utility with integrated functionality similar to autoconf/automake and compiler caches such as ccache. In short, it is an easier, more reliable and faster way to build software.	It is a competitor to the long-lived make program. Unlike other such competitors, it captures the essential simplicity and flexibility of make, while avoiding its flaws. It manages to do this while being simultaneously simpler than make, more flexible than make, and more powerful than make, and without sacrificing performance - a rare combination of features.
Reliable, automatic dependency analysis built-in for C, C++ and Fortran; Use the power of a real programming language to solve build problems; Built-in support for fetching source files from SCCS, RCS, CVS, BitKeeper and Perforce; Reliable detection of build changes using MD5 signatures	Recursive build system; Smaller, easier, more powerful; Captures the essential simplicity and flexibility of make
