[Buildbot-devel] Mutiple folders triggering a single product build

[Bill Skinner]

Sounds like the fileIsImportant param to Scheduler might work for you:

http://djmitche.github.com/buildbot/docs/latest/Scheduler-Scheduler.html#Scheduler-Scheduler

Create 2 Schedulers (one for each product) watching the same branch. Add
a fileIsImportant callable for each that checks per-product folder names
for that Scheduler.
