[Buildbot-devel] Serializing builds

[Alexander Staubo]

I have set up our BuildBot installation with a few builds on a single slave:

- Project "X" trunk compiled and tested with Java 1.4
- Project "X" trunk compiled and tested with Java 1.3
- Project "X" branch "Y" compiled and tested with Java 1.4
- etc.

I have not set up FrechCVS, my intention being that builds should run 
nightly, with additional builds every time a new stable version is 
tagged. (We tag stable builds whenever we merge a branch.)

For performance reasons, the nightly builds can't occur simultaneously. 
As far as I can see, BuildBot doesn't have a mechanism to serially 
trigger a sequence of builds.

Will the PBChangeSource do what I need? What's the best way to 
accomplish this?

Alexander.
