Huh? The buildfarm will only prove that HEAD of the active branches builds. What the concern was was whether we could correctly extract past states (particularly, but not solely, the tags corresponding to releases) from a converted git repository. The testing I had in mind was to check out various tags and diff that tree against actual release tarballs.
It appears that our git repo is only picking up the branch tags (e.g. REL8_0_STABLE) , not all the release tags (e.g. REL8_0_5) . That needs to be fixed (if possible).
