I have custom theme in ..../design/frontend/MyVendor/my-theme folder. My main less file is in design/frontend/MyVendor/my-theme/web/css/my-main.less. Content of the main less file:

@import './source/_module.less';

Location of _module.less file is in the folder

design/frontend/MyVendor/my-theme/web/css/source/_module.less

Contents of _module.less:

@import 'module/_cart.less';
@import 'module/_minicart.less';
@import 'module/_checkout.less';

The way I include my main less file is in default_head_blocks.xml:

<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet/less" type="text/css" src="css/my-main.less" />
    ......

The file is included, no errors anywhere, run the fallowing commands:

magento cache:flush
rm -rf pub/static
rm -rf var/cache
rm -rf var/page_cache
rm -rf var/view_processed
bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f

both

magento cache:flush & bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f

run without ANY errors. Still, the changes I made in module/_minicart.less are no presented when I refresh the page. What is the problem?

The correct way I include a less file in default_head_blocks.xml is:

<head>
        <css src="Vendor_Module::css/my-main.css"/>
</head>

Where css/my-main.css is actually css/my-main.less. It automatically transforms it somehow. So basicaly you use file-name.css in default_head_blocks.xml but you write your code in file-name.less file

Rename your main less file to _extend.less from my-main.less.

Put it in below location

design/frontend/MyVendor/my-theme/web/css/source/_extend.less

Insert your other less file in _extend.less, Like this

@import 'module/_cart.less';
@import 'module/_minicart.less';
@import 'module/_checkout.less';

FYI module directory should be design/frontend/MyVendor/my-theme/web/css/source/module
