It's a very simple provider that copy file from sources directory, but it
can't know if some files
are deleted because it doesn't have some metadata that can inform it.
The only possibility you have for the moment is to remove the checkout
directory and run a new
build. But the best way would be to add dynamic-view support in clearcase
provider. Only clearcase
users will can add this features because we don't know clearcase and we
don't have access to a
clearcase server.
Hello Emmanuel,
thanks a lot for your answer. A ClearCase dynamic view looks like a normal
filesystem, so I think scm-local in principle is a fine solution. I think
there wouldn't be much what a dedicated dynamic-view support in the
Clearcase SCM provider could add.
Maybe it looks like a normal filesystem, but I think the clearcase server know if files are deleted
and update your local copy, right?
Couldn't the scm-local adapter consider all files that are in the checkout
dir but not in the source dir as deleted? This should be easy to implement
and do the job.
We can't, because some users (or the build) add some files in the checkout directory like the target
directory and they don't want to remove them at each build.
