Custom output directory via build.target

README.md

@@ -118,6 +118,7 @@ Two profiles are supported:
 - `--release` - built-in flags per compiler
 
 Custom flags can be added in `dcr.toml` via `build.cflags` and `build.ldflags`.
+You can also set `build.target` to override the output directory (profile-independent).
 
 ## Configuration
 The main project file is `dcr.toml`.

 - `--release` — встроенные флаги для каждого компилятора
 
 Кастомные флаги можно добавить через `build.cflags` и `build.ldflags` в `dcr.toml`.
+Можно указать `build.target`, чтобы задать директорию выхода бинарника (без привязки к профилю).
 
 ## Конфигурация
 Основной файл проекта — `dcr.toml`.
