sccache VS EdenSCM

Use icecream or sccache. sccache supports distributed builds.

Worth noting that the first commit in sccache git repository was in 2014 (https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/commit/115016e0a83b290dc2...). So I suppose that what "happened" happened waay back.

If you have lots of shared dependencies, maybe try sccache?

I'm going to set up sccache [0] to use it tomorrow. We use MSVC, so EFS is off the cards.

I think the primary benefit of pre-built procmacros will be for build servers which don't use a persistent cache (like sccache), since they have to compile all dependencies every time. But IMO improved support for persistent caches would be a better investment compared to adding support for pre-built procmacros.

https://github.com/mozilla/sccache is another option which addresses the use cases of both icecream and ccache (and also supports Rust, and cloud storage of artifacts, if those are useful for you)

That being said a compilation cache, eg the de-facto standard for Rust: sccache (https://github.com/mozilla/sccache) will help to compile and store some of the build artifacts centralized - still for each crate version + build profile (RUSTFLAGS) combination.

Kind of weird that https://github.com/facebookexperimental/eden (linked in mononoke) redirects to sapling. Does that mean it's replacing eden?

Maybe at their scale it makes more sense to switch to a VCS like Eden? https://github.com/facebookexperimental/eden

Eden's equivalent of 'git status' should run almost instantaneous, as checkouts are hosted by a virtual file system (FUSE) that tracks changes.

Meta having moved on from Mercurial may be a factually true comment, but it looks like they still have fondness for Mercurial's ways:

Working on it :)

> - A version control system which scales to petabytes or more. Something that I could put large video files in without thinking twice about it. Something a large company could use for their monorepo—or even their data warehouse.

Eden - a cross-platform, scalable source control management system from Meta.
