A lot of failed builds were caused by missing (suddenly deleted/disappeared) artifacts not by incoming model changes. So autovalidation by Jenkins will probably prevent maintainers to submit a patch which fixes, but depends on the broken master state. So IMHO gerrit would not eliminate the problem in the whole, but can probably make the maintenance not that easy Best regards, Dennis Hübner Xtext Commiter / Build Engineer Mobile: +49 (0) 151 / 17 39 67 07 Telefon: +49 (0) 431 / 990 268 70 Fax: +49 (0) 431 / 990 268 72 itemis AG Niederlassung Kiel Am Germaniahafen 1 24143 Kiel http://www.itemis.de/ Rechtlicher Hinweis: Amtsgericht Dortmund, HRB 20621 Vorstand: Jens Wagener (Vors.), Wolfgang Neuhaus, Dr. Georg Pietrek, Jens Trompeter, Sebastian Neus Aufsichtsrat: Dr. Burkhard Igel (Vors.), Stephan Grollmann, Michael Neuhaus
