Second task in run-sequence doesn't run

Suppose I have the following task:

gulp.task('my-task', function (cb) {
    fs.appendFileSync('myPath', 'data');
});

When I do something like this:

gulp.task('build', function (cb) {
    runSequence('my-task', 'some-task',cb);
});

my-task runs and finishes, but some-task never runs.

My question is: how do I make some-task run after my-task has finished?

Your problem is that gulp doesn't notice that my-task has finished. When you declare a callback function cb you have to actually call the callback:

gulp.task('my-task', function (cb) {
  fs.appendFileSync('myPath', 'data');
  cb();
});

Or you can leave the callback out entirely, since fs.appendFileSync is synchronous anyway:

gulp.task('my-task', function () {
  fs.appendFileSync('myPath', 'data');
});
