How to change xmake global cache/packages/repositories directory?

[cursey]

As the title says, it's unclear to me how I would go about changing the directory xmake uses to store downloaded and compiled packages. I have a separate drive for development and would like to store all this data on that drive so it isn't taking up space on my C: drive. Is it possible to tweak the directory? If not, could such an option be added?

set XMAKE_GLOBALDIR=D:\yourdir

Thanks for the answer. Is this documented somewhere and I just missed it?

You can run xmake show -l envs to see a list of all environment variables, but there is no documentation of this yet

You can also use xmake g --pkg_installdir=xxx to set the installation package storage path separately, and I just added a new xmake g --cachedir=xxx parameter to set the global cache directory separately on dev branch.
