Hi

What is the status of this?

I appear to need to delete my Hudson Workspace to get a GIT 'refresh'.
Searching comes up with this correspondence.

On my Hudson HIPP I appear to have only the choice of Buckminster 4.2 so
perhaps 4.3 or 4.4 may have already fixed it.

But when I look at

https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.buckminster/governance

I see that the current version of Buckminster is 2.0.0 perhaps released
18 months ago but if so without a release review. No plans for further
releases.

I'm really confused. What is the best Buckminster version and does it
fix the GIT refresh problem?

     Regards

Hi

Is git.auto.fetch considered during materialization?

Not really. That functionality was written as part of the first
incarnation of the git support feature. I didn't know enough about git
to do a proper evaluation for a requirement spec. My current
recommendation would be to not use it. If someone has the time to look
into how this should be implemented properly, then I'd be very
interested in reviewing a patch. One thing that comes to mind
immediately is that the auto.fetch should be called auto.pull (since
that's what it was intended as).

OK, I'll submit a bug and see whether I can come up with something :)

cheers
