Scott has said in the past that the buildbot doesn't run on every checkin. This means that multiple commits might be tested. Would it be possible to have failure messages list all of the revisions that are being covered, based on the last successful commit? Additionally, it'd be nice if once a failure is detected, it'd either do an auto binary disection, to find the commit that actually failed in the list of covered revisions, or it could just try them all. For instance, if 891234 is good, and then 892765 fails. 892765 would get recorded as a state change, putting ofbiz into fail mode. It would then try 891562, 891840, 892496, and 892599, reporting that it tried these other revisions, and noticed the error first occurred at 892496, then ofbiz would stay in fail mode, and the buildbot would keep quiet until it detects that ofbiz has been fixed. Or, if that is too complicated, at least list all the covered revisions, and the user that committed each revision.
