- otherwise `$HOME/.cache/ccache`. Exception: If the legacy directory
- `$HOME/.ccache` exists then that directory is the default.
+ otherwise `%APPDATA%/ccache` (Windows), `$HOME/Library/Caches/ccache`
+ (macOS) or `$HOME/.config/ccache` (other systems). Exception: If the legacy
+ directory `$HOME/.ccache` exists then that directory is the default.
