After applying the patch on your commit machine, is it too difficult to
actually retest before committing? This would catch the broken commit
before it becomes a Tinderbox issue.
Seems to be a QA problem on your part.
yes.. but I can't do a compile from my mac. (my commit machine). The answer
is to be rigorous about how I move the patch from the build machine to the
commit machine.
This is a temporary situation. new infrastructure will let me commit from my
build machine again.
I find having a copy of Parallels (or VMWare) around very useful for precisely
this situation -- it means that even when I have only the Mac around I can
easily do a local test build. The various VM packages certainly have their
limitations, but they're far better than nothing.
