This skips the +initial check for the freshness of the depends tools. In particular, doing this +check all the time prevents rebuilding when you have no network access. + + +Local-Only Builds +----------------- + +If you need to run builds while disconnected from the internet, make sure you have +local up-to-date repos in advance. Then specify your local repo using the `--url` +option when building. This will avoid attempts to git pull across a network. + |
