Hello, to avoid recompliation, I am rather doing the following (not sure if this is a good thing to do) :
$ git fetch trac # needs to be in /sage $ git ch develop # I switch to the develop branch $ git pull trac develop # this updates to the latest developement version of sage $ make build # to compile the latest sage $ git ch develop -b 16325 # creates a new branch, you can choose the name as you want $ git pull trac public/ticket/16325 # applis the branch in trac on top of a copy of develop $ sage -bt whatever This is merging develop into the branch 16325, so that small changes give small compilation time But one again, maybe this is not an orthodox way..

As an example, I ran the following commands > $ sage -upgrade develop # this upgraded to sage-6.3.beta0 > $ sage --dev checkout --ticket 16325 # somehow this was not based off > develop > $ git rebase develop # this rebased the branch ticket/16325 on > develop > $ # made changes to only one file: sage/plot/contour_plot.py > $ sage -btp --long src/sage/plot > > The build took 15 min to complete - it is running the tests now. > > I have both ccache and cycache enabled. The last command above identified > a lot of files which do not need compilation, but then it also identified > over 300 files which needed to be compiled. This is a recurring problem > that I face when changing branches and is really time consuming. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
