Should be fixed. Our version of buildbot's handling of Mercurial branches is kinda weird.
We probably should update, our version is somewhat old. Seems like the system copy of Twisted will need updating though, newer versions seem require 8.0.x. (ours is significantly older than that). Further sysadmin discussion probably shouldn't happen on a public list though :) -Colin On Apr 3, 2011, at 4:28 AM, Thijs Alkemade wrote: > Hey all, > > Can someone with access to buildbot see why it's doing this: > > http://buildbot.adium.im/builders/adium/builds/695/steps/hg/logs/stdio > > The last commit was on a branch, and buildbot does notice tip is not on > default ("Working dir is on in-repo branch 'AILoggerWithBlocks' and build > needs 'default'.
