Comment:
This was a frequent complaint, although I can't find an actual bug on the
topic.
The truth is, the earlier order was only stable if you never added or
removed builders during reconfiguration. The new order is stable.
The easy solution for users is to prefix builders with something to
enforce the ordering - 01-foo, 02-bar, etc.
As we enter the multi-master, shared world of nine, the order in the
master doesn't have a meaning anymore: the set of builders is configured
across all masters, possibly in different orders or with some builders
only on some masters.
Perhaps the best solution within the Buildbot codebase is to add a
"display_order" integer for each builder, and then sort builders by
(display_order, name). I'll leave this bug open for someone to implement
such a thing.
