[Makefile] fix missing rules preventing dry-runs

We have to support dry-runs, because many IDEs are using
dry-runs to collect build information.

Some rules have dependencies that expect certain files or
directories to be just present. We added respective build
rules which invoke the test program. This way, the behavior
when running make normally is exactly the same, but dry-runs
are also not failing now.

title: 'dav get'
---

**`dav get [-pcRK] [-o <file>] [-u <date>] [-V <version>] <url>`**

Downloads a resource. This command also downloads collections and its child resources when the **`-R`** option is used.
When downloading a single resource, the default local file name is the resource
name. When downloading collections, it does **not** create a local directory with
the collection's name and places its children in there, but it downloads the
children directly to the current working directory.

**`-p`** disable file name and content decryption. You get exactly what is stored
  on the server.
  
**`-c`** enable file name and content decryption

**`-R`** download a collection

**`-K`** download only files that don't exist locally

**`-o <file>`** specify the local output file. A **-** indicates stdout

**`-u <date>`** download only files which are modified since the specified date. Uses the HTTP date format

**`-V <version>`** downloads a specific version of the resource. Available versions can be listed with the *list-versions* command
