#latexmk is great for auto-compiling your documents.
However, it fails in some cases and I'm currently bitten by a nasty one:
- \includgraphics'ed PDF is corrupt (It's a missing, unlocked #gitAnnex/@datalad file)
- that stops biblatex from properly finishing the .bcf XML file
- *before* fetching the missing PDF (with #DataLad), latexmk runs biber on the now corrupt .bcf (fails and deletes the .bbl)
- vicious cycle repeats literally forever - latexmk is in an endless loop 🙄
