[users at bb.net] 2 checkout steps in the same builder

[Francesco Di Mizio]

Hey Pierre,

in my case there's no change triggering the build. Or better all I have is
a web app kicking a cutom scheduler in turn calling
addBuildsetForSourceStamps
Right now I am using a single Sourcestamp with an empty string named
codebase to feed addBuildsetForSourceStamps
Should I just pass two SourceStamps in to addBuildsetForSourceStamps?

I am not sure if that's what I need. Ideally if a build fails and I want to
re-build the same thing, I'd like Git to always get latest. Hope it's a bit
more clear now.

Thanks,
 Francesco
