[webkit-dev] Buildbot Emails
Historically build.webkit.org would email people when their changes broke the tree. This was disabled some time ago. I would very much like to see it re-enabled. Could someone point me as to how that would happen (I'm happy to code up a patch), or flip the magical switch themselves? -eric ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev

I'd actually like to see it email a mailing list, in addition to the individuals it guesses are to blame. That could be either webkit-dev or a new list. Maybe some won't want the spam but I bet a lot of people would like to find out about every build break. If it's at all possible, it would be great to email all of the patch author, the reviewer and the committer (if different from the patch author). I also think it would be neat if we could have a bot that alerts about build breaks on IRC in #webkit. And finally, it might be good to have extra notice if a build remains broken for some time (every 24 hours maybe?)

Do you guys think it may be a good idea to bring the concept of tree closure to WebKit? :DG On Mon, Feb 8, 2010 at 5:29 PM, Maciej Stachowiak m...@apple.com wrote: On Feb 8, 2010, at 4:45 PM, Eric Seidel wrote: Historically build.webkit.org would email people when their changes broke the tree.

I'd like to start with more active broadcast notification of build breaks and see if we think we need more changes from there. I prefer to try technology-based approaches before process-based approaches. Right now broken trees linger because you have to go out of your way to notice, meaning the information diffuses slowly.
