[Buildbot-devel] git build step doesn't properly handle renamed files?

Hey all ~

 

I've got my BuildBot setup up and running, and for the most part it's
great.  It's pretty simple; just a source code grab and a "make test"
really.

 

The problem is that any time a file is renamed (or removed?) from the
repository, the Git build step doesn't handle things quite right.  The
removed file is still there in the working copies BuildBot produces.

 

I believe that having the Git build step perform a `git clean -f` will
fix this, but I'm about as much of a Git guru as I am a BuildBot guru
:-P
