FWIW, the `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` change is an improvement but only //slightly// more reassuring than before. ;) Part of my paranoia is that I happen to know that Homebrew stores things in `/usr/local/...` as well (although probably entirely under `/usr/local/Cellar/...`?) and I wouldn't want to blow those away //either//. Apparently on my Apple system I have `/usr/lib/libc++.dylib`, `/System/DriverKit/usr/lib/libc++.dylib`, and `/usr/local/Cellar/llvm/12.0.1/lib/libc++.dylib`. > we test libc++ all the time without running the `install-cxx` target Well, I know I do, but I don't use ENABLE_RUNTIMES yet... and the how-to below //does// end with the line `ninja -C build install-cxx`. If there's a supported/expected-to-work way to build and test libc++ that doesn't use `ninja install-cxx`, it'd be cool to mention it. Anyway, this is all just me fudding and shouldn't block this PR. :) ================ Comment at: llvm/docs/GettingStarted.rst:633-634 +| | full monorepo layout).
