Howdy guys, I've been working on getting automated testing of git.git going over the past couple weekends (this is why I sent that FreeBSD related patch).

The build is currently being run for master and next:
    http://hudson.brokenco.de/job/Git/
    http://hudson.brokenco.de/job/Git__next

They're both pulling from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git which I don't think is seeing updates that often except for occasional pushes.

Is there a more preferrable tree that I should be tracking with Hudson for testing git.git itself?

I'm looking forward to getting tests run in a more automated fashion along with built packages :)

Cheers,
-R. Tyler Ballance

The master and next branches would be good branches to check, and maint would also be. It is likely that you saw "occasional pushes" because I've been slower than my usual self for the last past couple of weeks.

FWIW, I run tests except for t9xxx series on all branches on FreeBSD 8.0 (and Fedora 11) running in a vm before pushing them out, but an extra set of eyes is always appreciated. The ports/packages I have installed there might be missing stuff causing some tests to be skipped.

You may also be interested in:
   http://versabanq.com/demo/gitbuild/

It builds all the branches, not just the ones you specifically configure, and bisects in case of problems. (But since Junio is so careful there are rarely any problems :))

Have fun,
