Description
https://github.com/evanw/esbuild/releases/tag/v0.25.0
I need to stop a build by throwing in onStart. But with v0.25 it messes up the files as it clears the folder. Or is there a better way to stop a build?
I need to stop a rebuild that I trigger by writing a file in the build script. Or is there a way to not trigger rebuild for this?

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by tracing esbuild's watch-mode behavior around failed rebuilds and the clearing of output files described for v0.25.0. Done means providing a way to disable that clearing for this case while preserving the current default behavior.
