## Caching & Running Offline
If for whatever reason, you don't have access to the internet, but you still
need to be able to run your tasks, you are able to use the `--download` flag to
store a cached copy of the remote Taskfile.
Whenever you run a remote Taskfile, the latest copy will be downloaded from the
internet and cached locally. If for whatever reason, you lose access to the
internet, you will still be able to run your tasks by specifying the `--offline`
flag. This will tell Task to use the latest cached version of the file instead
of trying to download it. You are able to use the `--download` flag to update
the cached version of the remote files without running any tasks.
<!-- TODO: The following behavior may change -->
If Task detects that you have a local copy of the remote Taskfile, it will use
your local copy instead of downloading the remote file. You can force Task to
work offline by using the `--offline` flag. This will prevent Task from making
any calls to remote sources.
By default, Task will timeout requests to download remote files after 10 seconds
and look for a cached copy instead. This timeout can be configured by setting
the `--timeout` flag and specifying a duration. For example, `--timeout 5s` will
set the timeout to 5 seconds.
