<div dir="ltr">I'd vote against it, personally - I think I often look at more than one error at a time - especially with an API change/rename/reordering of function arguments/etc - I can go through at least a handful of the call site updates in one pass.<br><br>(we /might/ be able to do some experiments at Google scale with this sort of thing (if we found a good way around the build caching issues (eg: could run a sample based on file names so the cache didn't thrash due to actually random changes in output)) & see if developers take less or more time on average to converge on a successful build)<br><br>Taking a compiler-development look at the "30 pages of crap" to see where it goes so far off the rails as to be unhelpful might be useful.

where he was noticing the helpfulness of -ferror-limit=1 as making a<br>
huge usability difference. I acknowledge that being able to do good<br>
error recovery and keep going is useful in some cases, but for day to<br>
day interactive this might be a better usability default? Especially<br>
with the compiler fast enough for the edit/compile cycle?<br>
<br>
Thoughts? Shall we do this?<br>
