[clangd-dev] Multi-project workflow via multiple CDBs

Thanks for the info! I was aware of the auto-index functionality, but didn't know that it already supported multiple CDBs.

It sounds very good!

Out of curiosity, though - if a client wanted to send all the CDBs upfront, to avoid the requirement that you have to open a file from each project, would that be a reasonable capability to add?

Thanks,
