[Buildbot-devel] basic question

[Richard Woods]

If I change my sendchange command to include `--revision=FETCH_HEAD`, it
clears up the git issues.

 

However I'm still having the problem that actual pushes to the repo
don't seem to be causing the Scheduler to fire.

Digging a little further, here's a snippet from the step's stdio (which
I just discovered) --

 

starting git operation

 

<snip>

 

/usr/bin/git reset --hard None

in dir
/home/buildbot/sidecar-protocol-library/full-report-coverage/build
(timeout 1200 secs)

watching logfiles {}

argv: ['/usr/bin/git', 'reset', '--hard', 'None']

environment:

    <snip>

closing stdin

using PTY: False

fatal: ambiguous argument 'None': unknown revision or path not in the
working tree.

Use '--' to separate paths from revisions

elapsedTime=0.006632

program finished with exit code 128

 

What would cause BuildBot to say `git reset --hard None`?

Of note:

 

When I do a manual `git clone ssh://machinename/path/to/repository`,
.git/config looks like:

 

[core]

                repositoryformatversion = 0

                filemode = true

                bare = false

                logallrefupdates = true

[remote "origin"]

                url = ssh://machinename/path/to/repository

                fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

[branch "master"]

                remote = origin

                merge = refs/heads/master

 

However, the .git/config file in the repository buildbot created is
missing the [remote "origin"] and [branch "master"] sections.

 

[ I'm also a git newbie or I'd have known to provide this information to
start with ]

Ah, thank you!  With that sorted out...

 

The builds fail at the Git step.  The step is defined by
`Git(repourl="ssh://machinename/path/to/repository"))` -- pretty simple.
If I do a `git pull` from the build directory, I get "unable to chdir or
not a git archive", however if I do `git pull
ssh://machinename/path/to/repository`, I get the updates correctly.

your scheduler is on branch 'master' but your sendchange doesn't have a
branch.  Try adding --branch master to your sendchange

I had BuildBot set up to do periodic builds, and I'd like it to instead
receive change notifications from a git repository.

 

I have the post-receive hook set up in the repository to send the
changes to BuildBot.  I have changed the configuration file:

*         The change source is configured via `c['change_source'] =
PBChangeSource()`

*         The scheduler is defined by `Scheduler(name="all",
branch="master", treeStableTimer=0, buildernames=["buildbot-full"])` and
appended to c['schedulers']

But where my periodic builds were working before, I can't get these
builds to kick off.

 

I have done `buildbot sendchange --user=username --master=localhost:9989
Makefile`, and I see a change show up on the status Waterfall page, but
no builds kick off.  Where might I be missing something?
