Everything needed to compile Redis is inside this directory; your system just needs to provide `libc`, a POSIX compatible interface and a C compiler. Notably `deps` contains a copy of `jemalloc`, which is the default allocator of Redis under Linux. Note that under `deps` there are also things which started with the Redis project, but for which the main repository is not `antirez/redis`. An exception to this rule is `deps/geohash-int` which is the low level geocoding library used by Redis: it originated from a different project, but at this point it diverged so much that it is developed as a separated entity directly inside the Redis repository. +* `deps`: contains libraries Redis uses.
