The attached patch implements the "-r" option that bulkbuild already possessed but was not yet implemented in the script. This is not really a final solution since, with this patch, it builds only the modules that have the specified tag (e.g., if, say, only the "documentation-guide" and "fedora-install-guide" modules were tagged with "FC5", then specifying "-r FC5" when invoking bulkbuild would result in successful builds for those two modules; the remaining modules would fail when pulling from CVS). But, hopefully, this is a step in the right direction. Perhaps, ideally, bulkbuild should always result in the build of HEAD and, if any additional tags for certain modules, those branches should be built as well. One way (and I'm sure there are more) would be to have another commmand-line option that specifies the module/branch builds that also need to be performed. Something like (using -b for "branch build"): $ bin/bulkbuild -n -b (fedora-install-guide=scott) <-- snip other args --> In a to-be-modified bulkbuild, this would build HEAD for all the modules and the "scott" branch of the fedora-install-guide module. This same/similar info could be read in via a data file as well. Take care, Chris
