No, this is not possible.
“consumes quite a lot of time” is relative. Implementing build avoidance is pretty complicated, so spending the potentially redundant effort to pack everything
again has been considered overall less effort that implementing the build avoidance.

Subject: [tycho-user] Can Tycho Skip Packaging if no Changes were Made?
Hi,
I'm trying to port our Eclipse product build to Maven + Tycho. I've noticed that Tycho skips compilation if no source file was changed. However, plugin and product
packaging still runs and consumes quite a lot of time.
Is there a way to configure Tycho to skip packaging or any other processing if no source or resource file were changed?
I've found a
mojo that seemingly implements this logic, but it only affects the resulting build qualifier and does not affect the build process.
Regards,
Arye
