[Buildbot-devel] Killing running build automatically

[Martijn van Oosterhout]

Ok, this is what I have. It appears to work, but I'm not sure if it counts
as pretty. It took me a while since I didn't quite get the distinction
between BuildStatus and Build and that you can't get from the former to the
latter easily.

It's called the GerritRescheduler, and you define it as a scheduler, so you
can use all the normal filtering stuff (not tested). For a real patch it
should probably get a different name since it's not really Gerrit specific.
It has one new parameter which indicates which property should be used to
link the changes and builds.

It's not what I would call neat, but I think this is the right place to do
it. It's not really a scheduler though. It's also for the version of
Buildbot we're running (0.8.7p1) so maybe the interfaces changed. It's
probably missing some imports too.

Feel free to blow holes in it, but hopefully this gives you guys some ideas
(and solves my problem for the time being).

Have a nice day,
