For us, it's more the latter - efficient use of the server. We don't mind if multiple check-ins are built at the same time. Ideally Continuum builds are executed only when requested. That enables the server on which Continuum runs to focus on other functions.
A side bonus of a trigger mechanism is that developers don't have to wait a specified time interval + build time to validate their change. -Chris -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: June 08, 2006 2:03 PM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: RE: Subversion post-commit hook I know I'd find this useful as well, for several reasons: -If you simply let continuum build every 5 mins, there could potentially be more than 1 commit during that time, and you would be building multiple revisions worth of changes. Ideally, you would want to build once/revision so if the build breaks, you know which commit broke it. -The continuum server would not be making as many hits to the svn server. If you're building dozens and dozens of projects, this adds up when it's once every 5 mins. If you got rather fancy, it would sure be nice to have the commit check if there were new projects added, and automagically add them to continuum as well. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Carlos Sanchez Sent: Thu 6/8/2006 1:54 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Subversion post-commit hook why do you need that, setting a short period like 5 min is not enough?
