Summary description: Cache anything (TikZ, python, ...) in a robust, efficient and pure way
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Make robust-externalize much more efficient, added many options, e.g. to automatically forward only the use macros/colors/… to maximize purity without recompiling all pictures on a small change, options to compile it automatically in parallel etc… Notably
- Fix a bug when compiling the main document with lualatex or xelatex- Fix a bug when compiling a template that was not exporting dependencies
- Add |recompile| to recompile a file even if no dependencies changed.
- Add a hook |robust-externalize/just-before-writing-files|.
- Fixed a bug in |\cacheTikz| that was not working with a custom argument for tikzpicture
- Added options |forward*| to forward macros and counters
- Added |auto forward| and co
- Added |compile in parallel| and co
