Darren> At the close of an onnv milestone build there is an hg tag added, Darren> eg onnv_118. What happens if a changeset needs to be backed out Darren> and a respin done to ensure that the build is usable ? I see that Darren> recently there was such a case and backout push was done but the Darren> tag for onnv_118 is still set before the backout.
Darren> While in this case the divergence between the onnv_118 tag changeset Darren> and the backout one isn't much (only two changesets) it could in Darren> theory be more. Darren> So if projects want to be in sync with build close and a backout Darren> happens post build close but is required for the stability what to Darren> the ON gk's recommend we do ? Or is it so rare as not to be worth Darren> really worrying about that much ? So far it has been sufficiently rare that it hasn't seemed worth worrying about. But it is a good question; let us (the ON gk's) discuss it amongst ourselves, then one of us will respond later today, and if needed we (the ON community) can then discuss it further here. -- John http://blogs.sun.com/jbeck
