If you haven't already, could you write something up in JIRA please? I don't have cycles for this right now, but I agree with the idea. Please included your ideas for projects (source) changes as well as descriptor.
I've long wanted descriptor diffs, but I've not figured out the best way to do it (since some are in CVS, some via HTTP). I've thought about an XML DB or something, but I just don't know the right tool for this job. BTW: I feel that we need 'CVS|SVN history over the last N runs' not just the last one, and that might be more work & a very different implementation. BTW: Anybody expert enough with CVS|SVN to be able to query it for changes since date X, or something like that. I know there is -n, but I feel I need more. Does viewcvs do anything useful like this? regards Adam ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vincent Massol" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Gump code and data'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2004 1:22 AM Subject: RE: [RT] Source difference report between 2 gump build states > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Vincent Massol [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: 18 March 2004 09:10 > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: RE: [RT] Source difference report between 2 gump build states > > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: Vincent Massol [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Sent: 15 March 2004 00:19 > > > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > > > Subject: [RT] Source difference report between 2 gump build states > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > I have posted this idea under the thread "[Cactus] Gump build > failure: > > > Culprit found!" but I'm reposting it here as I'm not sure everyone > > will > > > read the cactus stuff and I think this is an "interesting idea"... > :-) > > > > > > Idea: It would be nice if Gump would be able to do a source diff of > a > > > project dependencies, and this between a successful run and a failed > > one. > > > That would be soooo nice!
