Such tools are for example scons is a make alternative that rethinks make's
"older timestamp => rebuild"
From www.scons.org/architecture/index.html

SCons also comes to mind because you are using make for R not (traditional)
programming
*Most of the build tools just mentioned were written by programmers and for

[Disclaimer: Ive not tried scons myself]
