[Buildbot-devel] override revision being checked out

[Vitali Lovich]

Sorry.  What I wrote was a bit confusing.  Basically, the Git step always checks out the revision that was changed, even when I specify a specific branch.  I think it might have something to do with having multiple Git steps for the same repository?

Anyway, I have it working with shell commands.  I was just hoping to leverage the Git steps.
