#1707: master.buildbot.status.words should include the revision number in its
messages
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Reporter: gps | Owner:
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: undecided
Version: 0.8.2 | Keywords: irc im words status message revision
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Right now the messages read something like 'build #113 of Platform Zardoz:
Failure ...url... blamelist: Connery, Boorman'
this really is not so useful as an IRC or IM message because it doesn't
tell you what revision that build was for. _Nobody_ normally gives a
flying face about the _build number_ on a random build bot, that is
irrelevant.
I'd like to see a message such as:
'build of r197902 on Platform Zardoz: Failure ...url... blamelist: ...'
you could include the build# in there if you want if someone actually
finds those useful but for the python.org buildbot, we don't. the build#
is in the url anyways.
for git/hg/bzr backed builds i'd expect a hash prefix instead of a svn
revision #, for user kicked off builds if a revision doesn't make sense,
just say so, etc.
I looked a bit at the buildbot/master/status/words.py and builder.py code
but it wasn't immediately obvious to me if a revision number is already
easily available in that part of the code so I'm filing this issue to
document what i want in hopes that someone more familiar with the codebase
agrees this would be good and makes it happen. :)
