"meson test" without --no-rebuild will first run "ninja" to verify that
everything has been built, and build it if it hasn't been. When passing
specific test names, it will filter for dependencies of that specific
testcase, and only ensure *those* are up to date. Assuming those
dependencies are accurate, of course. :D
What do you mean by "complete rebuild"? Do you mean all binaries that
were already built and up to date get marked stale and recreated?

project('git', 'c',
meson_version: '>=1.3.0',
# MSVC does not support GNU99, and C99 does not define __STDC_VERSION__
# on MSVC. So we instead fall back to C11 there.
default_options: ['c_std=gnu99,c11'],
You can pass any command-line options in as default_options, including
prefix. Defaulting to $HOME is somewhat unconventional regardless of
whether it's done in a Makefile or a configure.ac or a meson.build or a
CMakeLists.txt, but given the Makefile does indeed do that I suppose
it's not incredibly bizarre to do it in meson.build as well. :)
