Tracking non-MVFS files

Learn how to track non-MVFS files.

A build can also involve files that are not accessed through VOB directories. Such non-MVFS files are not audited automatically, but are tracked if you declare them as dependencies in a makefile. This tracking enables auditing of build tools that are not stored as VersionVault elements (for example, a C-language compiler), flag files in the home directory of a user, and so on. Tracking information on a non-MVFS file includes its absolute path, time stamp, size, and checksum.
