A related question - after rebuilding with the makefile system, is there a way to "make install" only the files which have changed? For example, suppose there is only a change to a .cxx file in plib/ssg. I do a "make", which rebuilds only libplibssg.a. But when I do a "make install", all the header files are also installed with new dates. Then when I rebuild SimGear and FlightGear, make thinks that the header files have changed and recompiles everything which depends on the header files (which is just about everything). This effect ripples down from plib to SimGear to FlightGear to Atlas. It would save a lot of compile time if one could "make install" only the files which have changed. Is there a way to do this?
