a subprocess caching utility, available as a command line binary and a Rust library.
I don't have much experience with this, but filing a bug to keep track of this over time. Package managers to consider: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#using-linux-package-managers. * [x] Arch / Pacman * [x]...
I'm not sure how common/useful this would really be, but I can imagine wanting to use a file's modtime as an input to a command's cache key (alongside the cwd...

bash-cache provides optional support for cooperative locking via `bc::locking_cache`, which ensures concurrent calls to the same function will not race. It would be nice to add something similar to `bkt`....
https://docs.rs/assert_cmd might help simplify some of the boilerplate in `cli.rs`. Need to experiment with it further.
An easy option is to add an `--invalidate` flag that, rather than retrieving the command simply deletes the cache key associated with the given command, like so: ``` $ bkt...
On Windows `bkt` fails with this error: ``` > /bkt.exe -- ipconfig bkt: Cache write failed: A required privilege is not held by the client. (os error 1314) ``` This...
