 Version:  0.9.0b7        |   Keywords:  collapseRequests, Gerrit
--------------------------+--------------------------------------
 i have tested it on 0.9.0b5 and 0.9.0b7 versions.

 the example given in the docs for "collapseRequests"
 http://docs.buildbot.net/latest/manual/customization.html?highlight=collapserequests
 #collapse-request-functions doesn't work (i use the GerritChangeSource).
 the req1 and req2 are not passed as objects but as dictinaries.

 i tried providing the "collapseRequests" option in both global config as
 well as in builder config but it shows same behaviour.

 also i tried by writing simple function for collapseRequest which always
 return True, and the changesets from same gerrit project with  same patch
 number same codebase were added to buildbot but they were not merged. also
 tried by writing function that always returns False but that also did not
 work.
