With the constant flux across our code base, I think aiming at precise, minimal includes is a better approach, as it helps achieving minimal rebuilds.
+1 for that.Was spending hours (!) yesterday during rebuilds with total ccache misses because of recent header changes.
In generall to make the life of (casual) contributor as easy as possible is the highest priority in open source environment. Not everybody posses the up to date hardware and/or time. Of topic but in the same context - "achieving minimal rebuilds" - still urgently missing these build options:
--disable-all-tests (or new build target make dev-instal-without-unit-tests for that matter) yes i know you don't want it, and that project is not a debate club, and someone must decide and you did.
Well I accept your decision ... and disagree. --disable-cve-testsCVE unit tests still prevent me from be able to compile LO on windows with activated antivirus. Someone wanted implement it? Who was it? Mat M. or me? ;-) Note: once we have --disable-all-tests we probably don't need it.
--enable-apps-only="base sw"if someone is working on one or two apps there is no reason to rebuild the whole suite all the time.
