Same here. There are projects such as
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/TileMill which were / are designed
to automate map reloading after changes, but when I last used TileMill
(a long time ago) there were signnificant problems using TileMill with
an OSM Carto-derived style (not least - there are so many tabs that they
disappeared off the screen). I tend to just reload when I want to
rerender. When changing my own OSM Carto-derived map style I use
https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-style/blob/master/update_render.sh
and
https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-style/blob/master/update_carto.sh
to reload data (the first if a lua script has changed and the database
needs to be reloaded; the second if only a style file has changed and
the style just needs to be recompiled).
If you want to see how changes are done
I would recommend looking at pull requests
and commit history.
I tried to summarise "Adding a change to OSM Carto" at
https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/SomeoneElse/diary/43041 ; some of
that won't be relevant but some of it might still be - things like
testing the effect of a colour change.
If you haven't seen it already, please do read
https://ircama.github.io/osm-carto-tutorials/git-workflow/ and the
related tutorials there - they're excellent!
Best Regards,
Andy
