I work in a development environment where sources are kept on a filesystem that is automatically backed up fairly often and we place our build output/generated objects on fast build servers that are not backed up. Having build output on the backed-up filesystem is very much discouraged.
With snapcraft, I find myself keeping my snap directory on the build server and manually backing up my work-in-progress whenever I remember to do it. Also, for a similar reason, I feel that locating custom plugins in parts/plugins is unfortunate. Other than parts/plugins, the parts directory only contains generated files. It would be nice if the plugins directory could be located in a source area rather than a build output area. Would it be possible to enhance snapcraft to allow all generated objects - parts, stage, snap, and the generated snap to be located on a different filesystem? Regards, Mike
