Re: Lightning fast build

Hello Gerd. Out of curiosity, and speculation, is your use of 'bear' intended to make a compilation database of Emacs sources for use with a LSP server? 

If so, how is that going? Last time I tried to do that, the server (clangd, i think) was still very confused in many files.

I just noticed that building Emacs master from scratch, i.e. what I do from time to time

    git clean -xdf \

        && bear -- make \
        && make install

went down from around 8 minutes to 4:30, and everything seems to still be working normally.  (This is macos 12.5.1, M1 chip.)

Kudos to whoever made that happen!
