Does any of the continuous integration servers support incremental builds or a filtering mechanism? For example, I want to configure some kind of filtering (as I call it), so transferring the file to a specific folder will not start a full (clean) run, but will only result in incremental builds. By "incremental build" I mean a process that will only put committed files in the right place, and all applications will not need to be rebuilt from scratch. Working with images is a good example of the case when we need such filtering and, therefore, incremental assemblies: why do we need to rebuild the whole application if only the images were changed? We just need to place the images in a dedicated place on the server.
