Example 1 (gulp 3.9.1):

const gulp = require('gulp');
const { cache, compare, uncache, remove } = require('gulp-cache-uncache');
const uglify = require('gulp-uglify');
const concat = require('gulp-concat');

gulp.task('preBundle', () => {
  return gulp.src('src/*')
    .pipe(cache('src')); //caches all files in order
});

gulp.task('bundle', [ 'preBundle' ], () => {
  return gulp.src('src/*')
    .pipe(compare('src')) //compares cached files and only releases changed files
    .pipe(uglify())
    .pipe(uncache('src')) //releases all uglified files in order specified in `cache`
    .pipe(concat('bundle.js'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

gulp.task('watch' ,() => {
  const watcher = gulp.watch('src/*', ['bundle']);
  watcher.on('change', function (event) {
    if (event.type === 'deleted') {
      remove('src', event.path); //remove file from cache
    }
  });
});

gulp.task('default', ['watch']);

Example 2 (gulp 4.0.0):

const gulp = require('gulp');
const { cache, compare, uncache, remove } = require('gulp-cache-uncache');
const uglify = require('gulp-uglify');
const concat = require('gulp-concat');

gulp.task('preBundle', () => {
  return gulp.src('src/*')
    .pipe(cache('src')); //caches all files in order
});

gulp.task('bundle', () => {
  return gulp.src('src/*')
    .pipe(compare('src')) //compares cached files and only releases changed files
    .pipe(uglify())
    .pipe(uncache('src')) //releases all uglified files in order specified in `cache`
    .pipe(concat('bundle.js'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

gulp.task('watch', () => {
  const watcher = gulp.watch('src/*', gulp.series('preBundle', 'bundle'));
  watcher.on('unlink', function (path) {
    remove('src', path); //remove file from cache
  });
});
