main: Zero overwrite time
Could the tags be saved via a rename? Like e.g.:
- save to a temp file,
- ln -f temporary TAGS,
- remove temporary?
This way the unready state is as short as possible.
Ctags isn't implemented as you expected.
However, I think ctags should be implemented as you expected.
Can
./ctags -o temporary-file ... && mv temorary-file TAGS.
be a temorary solution?
yes, it can, however I've written a tool to regenerate Ctags every couple of seconds and I wouldn't want to bother users with such usage requirement. See https://github.com/zservices/command-CI-server/tree/main/examples.
