Tell us about the problem

Sidekick has an option for a "Clean Build". It largely ignores this, but should honor it. For example, I just ran it after restarting Sidekick, and making some changes to my project. Hot module replacement was also unchecked. The device build ran very quickly, with log messages including:

File change detected. Starting incremental webpack compilation...
[19-12-03 14:37:05.716] (CLI) webpack is watching the files…
