I often compile code that has not been compiled before. For example when using MacPorts.
Never underestimate how much people like speed. I never thought SVN was slow or that I needed speed, until I tried git and realized I could not even consider using something slower.
- avar 16y agoEven if you're compiling code that you work on all the time changing a compile flag can invalidate all your ccache files. Having to wait 10 seconds instead of 30 for the new compile to finish can make a big difference when you want to be able to test changes quickly.
