Does building counts towards bandwidth?

Hi,

Sounds like a simple question but I couldn’t see a clear answer anywhere: does the data transferred during the build process (cloning repos, downloading the cache, etc.) count toward the bandwidth count (100GB on the free tier)?

Thank you in advance,

No it does not. It counts towards build minutes. So, the time Netlify needs to clone your repo, download the dependencies, etc, is what matters during building.
