[Buildbot-devel] Status of hg polling

[Georges Racinet]

Hi buildbot developpers,

what's the current status of Mercurial polling in Buildbot ? There is  
no such thing mentionned in the documentation.

I've seen this stalled pull request, based on the pushlog extension :
https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/pull/190
in which Dusting also mentions a pushlog poller (also by Mozilla):
http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbotcustom/file/4b9939914be1/changes/hgpoller.py

It's not clear to me what are the advantages of pushlog over the RSS  
feed provided by hgweb, unless if precisely for cases where the  
repositories aren't served over http at all.

Regards,
