[Buildbot-devel] Use of Interpolate in git source step

[andrew.inglis at optusnet.com.au]

	Hi All,

	Buildbot version 0.8.8

	I'm new to buildbot so I may have miss-understood how this should
work.

	 I would like to use Interpolate to specify branch and codebase
parameter values in a Git source checkout step.

	When I try this I get an exception as below.
 
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/buildbot/steps/source/git.py:313
in _dovccmd    312         cmd.useLog(self.stdio_log, False)  313 
       logmsg("Starting git command : git %s" % ("
".join(command), ))  314         d = self.runCommand(cmd)    
exceptions.TypeError: sequence item 2: expected string, Interpolate
found 
I found an earlier post related to this but could see no outcome or
resolution.

Should this work or am I trying to do something I shouldn't do?

Can anyone suggest a work around?

Thanks,

Andrew
