: If we are to have an article on [[incremental build]], then this should be (probably a redirect to a section within [[software build]]) an article on the build technique of building by incremental compilation of changed modules, and the need to manage their inter-dependencies. It's a good topic, but it's then of little relation to [[Iterative and incremental development]]. [[User:Andy Dingley|Andy Dingley]] ([[User talk:Andy Dingley|talk]]) 11:44, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
* {{agree}}. Merge [[Incremental build model]] into [[Iterative and incremental development]]. {{emdash}} {{user|Aaditya 7}} {{time}}
* {{disagree}}. Both incremental and iterative principles were born at about the same time and were used in large military projects together but subsequently they were adopted separatedly. It seems that the incremental part was adopted in civilian environments first (oldest written mention from 1957) and the iterative part was more widely adopted later (oldest written mention from 1968). The military got the iterative part from other methodologies such as PDCA and PDSA. The incremental part was already in use for any large project since ages. So, it was a natural choice for the military. I have the sources but not the time to explain more or edit this article now. As a final statement, several Agile frameworks combine both so, everything just came back to its roots. The iterative incremental development process is also called evolutionary as I have also mentioned here.
