[GRASS-dev] compile directions

[Moskovitz, Bob]

Would using ccache (http://ccache.samba.org/) be a good way to speed up compiles after a make distclean?  I'm thinking of using ccache but I would like to hear if anyone is using it while doing grass development.

For developers, repeatedly re-compiling from scratch would be a major
nuisance.

I think so.

It should always be done before "cvs update".
