I made a minor error in my previous posting. I forgot the first run as continuous starts up on the second day. I have make the correction inline below.

I mean this value (for example in CTestConfig.cmake) such as: set(CTEST_NIGHTLY_START_TIME "21:00:00 EDT") or set(CTEST_NIGHTLY_START_TIME "1:00:00 UTC") But let's be certain that we both are talking about the consistent times, namely UTC. > >> During which hours does the "continuous" builder run? > Between 6 am and 10 pm (UTC ?)

Commit 6 is processed shortly after 6:15 AM The builder shuts down for the night before Commit 22 is posted at 10:15 PM > >> Which builds do you expect to be posted to "nightly"? > At 11 pm the commit should be e.g. 48 (HEAD revision) which means the last > commit from the current day At 11 PM, the last commit was the one made at 10:15 PM, namely 22, 46, 70, ... > e.g.: If the last commit from the 21.06.2012 is at 12:30 am I don't know how you expect 12:30 AM to be the last commit of the day.

(And please follow my assumptions -- all of the commits in my scenario occur at 15 minutes past the hour. There are no commits made at 12:30 am) Please draw your timeline, mark all of the actions and revise your expectations. > The only difference is that the nightly builds starts from an empty build > directory (the directory content are removed).
