New comment by paper42 on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/41008#issuecomment-1350703573 Comment: Running `build` after patching a file should do an incremental build with most regular build systems. It will be faster than ccache, but it won't work if `$version` is updated because then $wrksrc is different, ccache will work in both cases.
