Automatic Caching for C++ Builds - Merging Git and the Compiler
Explore the innovative approach of merging Git with C++ builds for automatic caching in this conference talk from C++ on Sea 2023. Discover how to overcome the challenges of rebuilding artifacts across multiple machines and the inefficiencies in Continuous Integration. Learn about the complexities of C++ versatility, platform-specific build artifacts, and ABI-breaking compiler flags that often necessitate building from source. Delve into the potential benefits and obstacles of reusing build trees, and understand the novel solution of binding Git with C++ builds to streamline the development process. Gain insights from Damien Buhl, co-founder and CEO of tipi.build, as he presents this cutting-edge technique to optimize C++ build workflows and reduce development costs.
