grog taint

grog taint

Taints targets by pattern to force execution regardless of cache status.

Synopsis

Marks specified targets as “tainted”, which forces them to be rebuilt on the next build command, regardless of whether they would normally be considered up-to-date according to the cache. This is useful when you want to force a rebuild of specific targets.

grog taint [flags]

Examples

  grog taint //path/to/package:target      # Taint a specific target
  grog taint //path/to/package/...         # Taint all targets in a package and subpackages
  grog taint //path/to/package:*           # Taint all targets in a package
