Suppose i have big C/C++ projects and ctags run slow for generating all tags on this projects. Is this possible for ctags to update only for updated files?, the information of the updated files can be from git status. Thanks!

Programmers want this feature. However, I'm using ctags as a tool for reading UNCHANGED source code. Generating once for the source code, I don't have to update it. So I have no motivation for solving this issue.
If there is one who wants to fix this, I recommend you to inspect readtags.c.
