Description

What is your question?

When I first execute the cuvs/examples/build.sh, some packages are installed by CPM.cmake from GitHub. When I modify the source files in cuvs/examples/cpp/src, I try to execute build.sh to compile, but the packages still need to be added by CPM, which costs a lot of time. I want to know how to avoid installing packages repeatedly.

Thanks in advance.

Research direction

Read cuvs/examples/build.sh and its CPM.cmake setup first, then inspect how repeated builds handle dependencies after edits in cuvs/examples/cpp/src. Done means documenting or confirming a way to avoid reinstalling the packages on subsequent builds.
