Is the idea of smartmake to make things also work for non-toplevel folders? For
example, if I edit .cpp only in content/base/src, it should be enough to
rebuild that and toolkit/library. However, `mach build content/base/src` won't
add toolkit/library in that case.
I think this would be a nice use case to cover for the workflow of:
- enter folder
- make changes to files
- `mach build .`
In any case, I filed bug 868880 to include some of the browser/app dependencies
into smartmake.
I thought at one point I had longest substring matching in smartmake,
but the details are fuzzy. It feels like it should be fine to take the
dependency that is the longest substring match of the target and start
building from there, which would avoid the need to add
browser/devtools/* to the dependency list.
Cheers,
Josh
