Hi Matisse, this is not something that works out-of-the-box ... buildbot 
is currently designed to only track one repository. Multi repositories 
is work in progress, and can be tracked with the 'buildcoord' keyword in 
the bug tracker. [1]

For what you are looking for, though, I guess the 'alwaysUseLatest' [2] 
parameter of any Source Checkout Step could be fitting your needs.

Best Regards,
Benoit
