Smarter sanitary build #72

Open dotcomboom opened 2 years ago

dotcomboom commented 2 years ago

Current behavior, sanitary build warns user, then moves the whole out directory to recycle bin and starts from scratch.

Alternative, intelligently tell what files need to be updated and do that, somehow

dotcomboom commented 2 years ago

New idea totally lifted from iWeb: Sanitary Build being named "Build Entire Site", Build being "Build Site Changes". Or some wording like that would be easier to understand. (changed Publish to Build from the iWeb wording, because it's technically not being 'published'.)

Find a way to compute hashes for files and then compare all the includes to the files in the out folder that way, rather than comparing I think dates?
