+// https://github.com/com-lihaoyi/acyclic[Acyclic] is a Scala compiler plugin that
+// detects circular dependencies between files within a module. This can be very
+// useful for ensuring code quality at a high-level:
+//
+// * While most linters can be concern themselves at a micro-level with formatting
+//   and whitespace, acyclic is concerned at a macro-level with how your codebase
+//   is structured into different files
+//
+// * While most linters satisfied by tweaking whitespace, circular dependencies may
+//   need significant refactorings like dependency-injection or
+//   interface-implementation-separation to resolve.
+//
+// As a Scala compiler plugin, Acyclic can be enabled on any `ScalaModule` by
+// adding its `compileIvyDeps,` `scalacPluginIvyDeps`, and `scalacOptions` as
+// shown below:
+
+package build
+import mill._, scalalib._
+
+object `package` extends RootModule with ScalaModule {
+  def scalaVersion = "2.13.11"
+  def compileIvyDeps = Agg(ivy"com.lihaoyi:::acyclic:0.3.15")
+  def scalacPluginIvyDeps = Agg(ivy"com.lihaoyi:::acyclic:0.3.15")
+  def scalacOptions = Seq("-P:acyclic:force")
+}
+
+/** See Also: src/Foo.scala */
+
+/** See Also: src/Bar.scala */
+
+// Here we have a single `ScalaModule` with two files: `Foo.scala` and `Bar.scala`.
+// `Bar` and `Foo` both depend on each other, which usually indicates an issue:
+
+/** Usage
+
+> ./mill compile
+error: Unwanted cyclic dependency
+...src/Bar.scala...
+  val value = Foo + " world"
+              ^
+symbol: object Foo
+...src/Foo.scala...
+    println("hello " + Bar)
+                       ^
+symbol: object Bar
+
+*/
+
+// Usually the code should be refactored such that references between files
+// is only one way. For this example, we remove the reference to `Foo` in `Bar.scala`,
+// which allows the code to compile:
+
+
+/** Usage
+
+> sed -i.bak 's/Foo/Bar/g' src/Bar.scala
+
+> ./mill compile
+done compiling
