This "compare" view on GitHub shows the difference between the

The ReadMe explains the high-level view, and says it is gradually
being worked into upstream ninja.
It has to do with Fortran modules. These are sort of "include" files
that are automatically generated by the Fortran compiler. So, there is
a specific order in which Fortran source files must be compiled so that
files that include exist before they try to include them.
For some examples see this cmake test case:

It will not pass with upstream ninja.
