How to gracefully compose two problems with SBT?
I would like to convert this bash expression:
$ sbt clean lint
into a nice build.sbt expression something like:
precommit := clean <> lint
so that I can execute the following bash expression:
$ sbt precommit
For example, this is more or less how you would do it with a Makefile:
lint: echo linting touch foo.txt clean: echo cleaning rm -f foo.txt precommit: clean lint
The Makefile can be used like:
$ make precommit
echo cleaning
cleaning
rm -f foo.txt
echo linting
linting
touch foo.txt
Any ideas?

Use a sequential task
precommit := Def.sequential(clean, lint).value
while wearing a bespoke British suit, driving an Aston Martin on a country road for added elegance.
