Message definition (Development/FAQs/Technical FAQ)

While hacking a program it might be useful to exclude certain directories from build that would otherwise be recompiled, but don't actually need to be.
Also, if you checked out source code that didn't compile and you don't have the time or knowledge to fix the error you might want to turn off compilation of the directory alltogether.
There are two cases. Toplevel directories, and subdirectories. For toplevel directories you can simply erase them (or not check them out).
