How to ask sbt to only fetch dependencies, without compiling?

Is there a way to only download the dependencies but do not compile source.

I am asking because I am trying to build a Docker build environment for my bigger project. The Idear is that during docker build I clone the project, download all dependencies and then delete the code. Then use docker run -v to mount the frequently changing code into the docker container and start compiling the project.

Currently I just compile the code during build and then compile it again on run. The problem ist that when a dependencie changes I have to build from scratch and that takes a long time.

Run sbt's update command. Dependencies will be resolved and retrieved.
