## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

Ccache is a compiler cache that speeds up recompilation by caching prior compilations and detecting when the same compilation is being done again.

### Projektgeschichte

The official credits page says ccache was originally written by Andrew Tridgell, inspired by Erik Thiele's compilercache shell script, and has been developed and maintained by Joel Rosdahl since 2010.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The official site presents ccache as a cross-platform build accelerator supporting GCC, Clang, MSVC, and similar compilers on Linux, Windows, macOS, and other Unix-like systems. The supplied package facts show broad package-manager availability, including Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, Nix, MacPorts, Chocolatey, Scoop, winget, Alpine, Arch, Ubuntu, and zypper.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Ccache is used by developers and build farms to speed repeated clean builds, branch builds, and shared compilation servers. The manual documents command modes, statistics, automatic cleanup, local and remote storage, cache-specific and directory-specific configuration files, environment variables, and direct/depend modes.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

Few developer packages are as visibly package-manager-adjacent as ccache: it is commonly installed globally, inserted ahead of compilers in PATH or build-system variables, and tuned through predictable config files and environment variables. It is also a useful packaging stress test because it wraps many compilers while trying to preserve exact compiler output.

### Zeitleiste

- 2010: Official credits identify Joel Rosdahl as maintainer from this year.
- 2016-06-06: Official news says source code and bug tracking moved to GitHub.
- 2019-04-03: Official news says the website moved to ccache.dev.
- 2026-05-04: Official news lists ccache 4.13.6 as released.
