Description Temtaime 2017-10-28 16:53:31 UTC 
See title.
It should not recompile files until they are edited
Comment 1 kinke 2017-10-28 17:25:27 UTC 
It has to with `--build-mode=singleFile`. It means 'compile all D files into a single object file', so it cannot reuse previous compilation results.
Comment 2 Temtaime 2017-10-28 18:52:32 UTC 
No, it compiles all the files to many object files, so it can it.
I already patched source to do such a behavior

Ah sorry my bad, I confused it with LDC's `-singleobj`.

Sorry but valid or invalid, DUB has no category here so its bugs must be reported here: https://github.com/dlang/dub/issues.
