Hi,

This is referring to build cache which is normally configured with something like:

cache:
  - packages -> **\packages.config

I have a situation where I would like to depend on several files. I'm guessing the syntax might be something like...

cache:
  - packages -> DEP1, DEP2

or maybe...

cache:
  - packages -> DEP1 -> DEP2

Does Appveyor support this?

   Yes, this is the correct syntax:

   cache: 
     - packages -> DEP1, DEP2

   Can we have wildcard with multiple dependency?
   like
   

   cache:
       - packages -> .appveyor.yml, somedir_in_repo\*.bat

   @Hiren yes, it should work.

   @llya Thanks. Perhaps we should add this info (with few examples) to AppVeyor documentation as current documentation (https://www.appveyor.com/docs/build-cache/) doesn't say anything about having multiple dependency

   You are right, I was needed to check with code myself to answer your question :) Will update.
