Description Aakash Jain 2019-03-16 08:48:25 PDT
Builders on ews-build don't need to run clean builds. Incremental builds are fine for EWS. clean builds take a lot longer without much value addition for EWS. The current EWS also doesn't run clean builds, ews-build should do the same.

Question about this change: What happens if we need a clean build for some reason? Is there a mechanism to, for example, force a clean build if the build fails?

Discussed this on IRC with Aakash. Turns out, the code which cleans up after a patch fails to build removes the build directory. So we shouldn't need to do anything special to handle this case.
