For our daily and nightly builds it would be good to use CVS trigger which
touches a file after a commit. Then only this file would be checked to
determine if a build is needed.
But this trigger would need to be intelligent. It must only touch the file if
files with certain extensions have been committed. For example a new build is
not necessary if someone checks in a Word document. Furthermore we need two
such touched files, one for the HEAD and one for the release line branch. If
someone checks into the release line branch, the trigger must not touch the
file which represents modifications on the HEAD. It must instead only touch the
file which represents modifications on the release line branch.
Please consider that I am a windows guy and that our CVS server is a Linux
machine. So it would be nice if you can tell me a example script or something
which makes it easy to implement this. Thank you very much.
We have to do the whole thing because CVS needs a lot of time to determine
whether modifications occured. It takes at least 15 Minutes. By just checking
one file for its touch date, this can be speeded very much.
