    raises: [OSError, IOError, ValueError], tags: [WriteDirEffect,
    ReadDirEffect, ReadIOEffect, WriteIOEffect, ExecIOEffect].}

Build target file as a binary in debug mode.

proc build_release(name, main: string;
                   version, bindir, cachedir, extraArgs, compileTarget = "";
                   isCPP = false; doStrip = false) {...}{.

    ReadDirEffect, ReadIOEffect, WriteIOEffect, ExecIOEffect, ReadEnvEffect].}

Build target file as a binary in release mode

proc fetch_nimble_dependencies(deps: openArray[string]) {...}{.
    raises: [ValueError, IOError],
    tags: [ReadIOEffect, WriteIOEffect, ExecIOEffect].}

Invoke nimble to install all deps listed

                              tags: [ReadIOEffect, WriteIOEffect, ExecIOEffect].}

Grab all submodules via git
