>
> In a project configured to use CVS update mode, and doing incremental builds
> (or
> faulty clean steps), it can happen that CVS updates produce conflicts. For
> example, on occasion what was previously a .cvsignore'd build product becomes
> checked into the repository - say, ANTLR-generated files if you no longer wish
> to depend on antlr.jar for regular builds. In such cases, "cvs up" fails and
> the
> build breaks. There is no way to correct the build from the admin GUI, either;
> you need to log in to the server and delete the workspace.
> If a project is configured to use update mode, and the update command fails, I
> think Hudson should automatically attempt a clean checkout, in the interests
> of
> robustness and zero maintenance.
