## Other `x` commands

Here are serveral non-comprehensive examples and explanations for various
`x.py` commands:

- `./x.py clean` - invalidates the build config cache (but not LLVM cache also)
- `./x.py check --all-targets` - does cross-compilation for a lot of different targets
- `./x.py test --stage 1 --keep-stage-std 1` - use a cached version of the compiler
- `./x.py test --bless src/test/mir_opt - automatically generates `MIR` dumps
- `./x.py test --stage 1 --compare-mode chalk` - sets compare-mode to `chalk`
