I'm toying with the idea of a check_upgrade mode for the buildfarm client

after pulling new changes into your OS. Other, brighter ideas welcome.
What would be the right course of action if check_upgrade fails? Is it
reasonable to expect buildfarm volunteers to downgrade the system and
postpone until the problem is resolved?

Or do you think the member should be removed from the farm until the
build succeeds again? Sounds like worst of both worlds.



Neither, I don't think you're understanding me at all. The idea is to have some way of saying "well, the code is the same, but the tools have changed." i.e. we want to be able to hold one of these variables constant.

The buildfarm server knows how the run was invoked, and could distinguish runs done in this mode from other runs.
