SelectiveExecutionModule

Miscellaneous machinery around traversing & querying the build hierarchy, that should not be needed by normal users of Mill

Run to store a baseline snapshot of the Mill task inputs or implementations necessary to run tasks, to be later compared against metadata computed after a code change to determine which tasks were affected and need to be re-run

Run after prepare, prints out the tasks in tasks that are affected by any changes to the task inputs or task implementations since prepare was run. Effectively a dry-run version of run that lets you show the tasks that would be run without actually running them

Similar to resolve, but prints the changed upstream tasks rather than the selected downstream tasks.

Similar to resolve, but prints the output as a JSON tree so you can see the chain of dependencies that caused each selectively resolved task to be resolved from some upstream changed input

Run after prepare, selectively executes the tasks in tasks that are affected by any changes to the task inputs or task implementations since prepare was run

Returns a string representation of the object.

The default representation is platform dependent.
