[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 set-property'
---

**`dav set-property [-pc] [-L <lock>] [-n <uri>] <url> <property> [value]`**

Sets a resource property to the specified value.

*property* is a property name with or without prefix (see [get-property][1] for details).

To store an xml value, use the **`-x`** option. The specified value must be a valid xml document. All nodes below the root element are stored as the property value.

[1]: ./get-property.html

If no value is specified, the content for the property is read from stdin.

**`-p`** disable file name and path decryption if enabled

**`-c`** enable file name and path decryption

**`-x`** store an xml value

**`-L <lock>`** use a lock token. See [dav lock][1]

**`-n <uri>`** specify property namespace

**Note:** Properties are never encrypted.
