Description Eike Stepper CLA 2011-06-24 00:16:13 EDT 
In SVN branches and tags are (copies of) file system trees that are rooted at (almost) arbitrary locations in that file system, e.g.:

  /tags/drops/I20110624-0608/
  /branches/maintenance/4.0/

It would be nice if Buckminster allowed me to specify these "composite" paths to particular branches and tags in the branchTagPath attribute of <cq:advisorNode> elements.
Comment 1 Eike Stepper CLA 2011-06-24 00:20:37 EDT 
In either case Buckminster should syntactically validate the specified branchTagPath values and for illegal values produce proper messages and ideally fail the build.

Currently it seems as if problems with these values are not detected and lead to subsequent strange behaviour. I can not remember the details because I tried so many things before I (better: Thomas) found the cause of my problems.

Thommas,

Thanks for the fix. Does this Selection Criteria wors for git ?

I've tried to configure buckminster to use a Git's branch with no luck. An example of the advisorNode is the following:

<cq:advisorNode namePattern="^org\.eclipse\.ocl.*$" branchTagPath="remotes/origin/master"/>


The different "Selection Criteria"s I've tried are the following:

master
origin/master
remotes/origin/master
main

Only main works... where "doesn't work" means that the build feature (the first one to fetch) can't be found.


A screenshot with the branches list for the git repository cloned by buckminster coming right now.
