Hi, Sorry to intrude, but why would building be harder? Tbh I don't see the point of keeping generated files in git. Why not keep release binaries too! (I'm kidding ofc.)
Also, there may be a small number of "big diffs", but one is enough to introduce a bug. Generating the file every time ensures there is no hidden bug. Just my 2 cents.
