I've posted a change to re-direct mach build "binaries" and "faster" to simply "./mach build" in bug 1493272 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1493272>. There are more details in the bug, but simply running "./mach build" in the tup backend should be as fast and cover cases we'd want "binaries" or "faster" in a make based backend. > >cd ~/.mozbuild && mach artifact toolchain --from-build linux64-tup > > This doesn't work... no "mach" in my path.
