This feature allows to selectively "override" the content of a sketch. Overridden files will not be read from disk as usual but fetched directly from gRPC parameters (if the CLI is running as a daemon) or from a .json file containing the new source code (if the CLI us running from the command line).
This feature is useful for IDE that may have unsaved changes: in this case, the "dirty" content of the text editor may be verified/compiled anyway without the need to save the sketch on disk.
The same feature from the command line is achieved by storing the overridden files in a temporary json file and by using the
--source-override path/to/json
option forcompile
