Packaging releases makes for some messy work but I just use WithProperties to send amplifying data to steps.   My point is, I don't think changing to eliminate the strange repourl vs. baseurl bit matters, I'd rather just see it simplified.   I've not dug into the SVN code that I added for SVN tagging for some time but I remember scratching my head over the computeRepositoryURL() business.   Some of the magic code you are referring to?

Can you tell a bit more about what you mean by "simplified"?

It sounds like you have circumstances that are pretty complicated, and
you mostly want Buildbot to not try to understand your circumstances,
but get out of the way and do predictable things with the data you
give it.  Is that about right?
