[Scons-users] My own decider function

[Andrew C. Morrow]

MongoDB, as an experiment a number of years ago, wrote a Decider which uses
git metadata instead of file attributes. In practice, the experiment didn't
work: it proved just as costly to ingest the git metadata as to what the
other Deciders do.

However, it maybe provides an example of how to write a decider:
https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/blob/master/site_scons/site_tools/git_decider.py

Whether writing a Decider is what you actually should do is a separate
question.
