Description

as example like nasm

`“NASM tracking dependency” likely refers to NASM’s support for generating Makefile dependencies, primarily through the -M and -MF options, or the related -MT and -MQ options to specify dependency target names for build systems. These features are used to create files that track which source files a particular object file depends on, ensuring that make can correctly rebuild the target when its dependencies change.`

Research direction

Start by comparing llvm-ml's current command-line behavior with NASM's dependency options, especially -M, -MF, -MT, and -MQ. Clarify which options and dependency output llvm-ml should support; done means the requested behavior is specified and verified against the corresponding NASM examples.
