step.SVN has no relation to BuildmasterConfig sources

[ipv6guru]

While looking at my master.cfg file, I noticed a potential problem. I'm using a step.SVN like this:

c = BuildmasterConfig? = {} csources? = [] csources?.append(PBChangeSource(prefix="ProjectName?/trunk/"))

trunksource = factory.s(step.SVN, mode='update', svnurl=' svn+ssh://user@host/svn/repository/ProjectName/trunk')

The problem is that I can't add a step.SVN to watch a branch because the PBChangeSource only shows changes on trunk. If I take out the trunk subdirectory from the PBChangeSource prefix, then changes on any branch could trigger builds unnecessarily.

Possible solutions:

• Let sources in the BuildmasterConfig? have names, and let step.SVN

respond to specific sources

• Let step.SVN specify a prefix that overrides the PBChangeSource prefix,

If this is still a problem (it's 3 years old..) then it should be asked on the mailing list.
