Current Jekyll master has a new caching system that stores files in a .jekyll-cache folder

Given I run `bundle exec jekyll serve --incremental`
When I modify a single file
Then I get the following log:

Workaround

Add .jekyll-cache to excluded files in config.

[ashmaroli]

I think it would be better to add the value of site.config["cache_dir"] instead of just .jekyll-cache..

[parkr]

This will become a problem with v4, no?

[DirtyF]

@parkr yup.
