Advice on rebuilding for small changes

["Bhatia Praveen, HCLT-Japan" <pr...@hcltech.co.jp>]

Hello,
       I use forrest to document my internal reports for the management with
regular additions every week. To the get the latest additional report
generated, I think  ALL the previous reports and instructions are also going
through the documentation generation engine with the "forrest" command.
Seems unnecessary as the older .xmls didn't change.

Is there a way to say that only the newly added resource is compiled and
added to the website generation?

Regards
Praveen

You could use Forrest as a server, rather than the
static generation method.
