[jira] [Created] (BUILDR-671) no automatic rebuild when changing Buildfile

Diggory Hardy created BUILDR-671:
------------------------------------

             Summary: no automatic rebuild when changing Buildfile
                 Key: BUILDR-671
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-671
             Project: Buildr
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Dependency management
    Affects Versions: 1.4.12
         Environment: Ubuntu 13.04
            Reporter: Diggory Hardy
            Priority: Minor


Buildr does not automatically rebuild components for which the build instructions in the Buildfile have changed. This leads to slight confusions when adjusting the Buildfile to get the desired results (at least for new users). Compare for example to CMake which does rebuild as necessary.

The quickest fix might be to cache a checksum or timestamp of the buildfile and clean before building whenever it changes (I think this is roughly what cmake does).
