sounds good, but the patch appears to be empty.. could you re-add it?

comment:2 Changed 3 years ago by albertHofkamp

Patch is non-empty but not in unified format, hence Trac cannot display it. Download in original format to see the changes.

comment:3 Changed 3 years ago by grim

What needs to be done for this to be accepted? The diff is there, it's just, as alberHofkamp said, not a unified diff.

  • Milestone changed from 0.7.10 to 0.7.+

the patch adds username/password support to the Darcs support on the slave, not Monotone. Either way, if you add/change the interface on the slave, you should change the version number and check the version number on the master.

It seems like your master-side Monotone changes only add a username. Is this intentional?

With monotone you can have a hook which would provide the password, that way you would not need to have the password in the buildbot script.

I would be very keen to see buildbot support monotone natively.

Note that buildbot *does* support monone natively, although it hasn't seen much maintenance recently.

The problem with adding more VC's is that it's difficult to maintain them without someone familiar with the VC. If you could arrange a reliable maintainer from the monotone community (or, better, arrange a connection between the buildbot and monotone communities, so we do not depend on one person), then support could be better.
