(v1.51) Personal Reply-To: Mike Zanker X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Message-ID: <533154936.20010424190319@zanker.org> To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: make oddity MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've recently come back to FreeBSD after a couple of years' absence. I'm now running/tracking 4.3-STABLE but I have noticed that after a cvsup if I change to the source directory of a utility that, say, one source file has changed in and do a "make", all files get recompiled - not just the one that changed. This is even though there is an existing set of object files in /usr/obj. In fact, after a few days, if I change to the source directory of a utility that hasn't changed at all it still recompiles everything. Now, back when I was running 3.x I'm sure that only the files that changed would recompile. Has something been altered?
