You can't deduplicate if your 200 applications are using 20 minor versions times 50 mixes of compile flags. You're lucky if any two share the same output.

- SigmundA 6y agoIf your apps are using 20 different minor revisions and 50 different compile flags they prob can't share those libraries anyway? At least if some parts are the same they will dedupe at the block level even if files are different.
