+ccache README
+=============
+
+
+About
+-----
+
+ccache is a compiler cache. It speeds up recompilation by caching the result of
+previous compilations and detecting when the same compilation is being done
+again. Supported languages are C, C++, Objective-C and Objective-C++.
+
+Please see the manual page and documentation at http://ccache.samba.org for
+more information.
