From 5e2d0ed61e76b5981c527442d8fb5468a5d42eaf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Trott Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2021 18:06:05 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] doc: simplify ccache instructions `ccache` has reasonable defaults for `max_size` and `cache_dir` so remove instructions to set those things explicitly. Change fenced code from `console` to `bash` for easier copy/paste.
