Kohsuke Kawaguchi added a comment - 2008-03-04 13:52 But the commit happens after the last build date, so this wouldn't help, would it.

towe added a comment - 2008-03-04 23:44 In the latter example (real world) we assume the last Hudson build has been executed 2008-03-04 12:00. By giving the additional "<" with the date CVS reports all changes starting from the given date. So if it reports something, we know there have been new commits since the last build. Another advantage of this approach is that you don't need the files to be checked out first (I know they are anyway, but maybe this gives more flexibility).

akshay_abd added a comment - 2008-03-21 16:02 Hey while the CVS logging is being changed could a fix for: https://hudson.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=427 https://hudson.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=337 be implemented? The bug reporter has some suggestions, one of them is to modify the cvs log command.

http://jenkins-ci.org/commit/cvs-plugin/1c6ddef1e5c1c3fe9f1a236fe4cc3aa336b8ca21 Log: Merge pull request #5 from mc1arke/master Overhaul of the cvs plugin Changes: Allowing checking out modules from different branch/tags in a single repository ( JENKINS-768 , JENKINS-6812 ) Allowing multiple repositories in a single job i.e. multiple CVS roots ( JENKINS-2638 ) Using a Java CVS Library rather than depend on a system library ( JENKINS-49 , JENKINS-3848 , JENKINS-3756 , JENKINS-1676 ) Use 'rlog' for polling and change-log generation and 'rtag' for tagging ( JENKINS-6312 , JENKINS-10981 , JENKINS-11787 , JENKINS-1847 , JENKINS-1359 , JENKINS-76 , JENKINS-9809 , JENKINS-2710 , JENKINS-5744 , JENKINS-4604 ) Restrict CVS to only check-out configured modules and not other CVS items in the workspace ( JENKINS-7449 , JENKINS-2345 , JENKINS-4489 , JENKINS-1638 , JENKINS-528 ) Add check-box to allow disabling change-log generation per project ( JENKINS-3979 ) Leave CVS/Entries contents in their original encoding ( JENKINS-4241 , JENKINS-2614 ) Making CVS Prune (-p parameter) optional through job configuration ( JENKINS-1013 ) Improving warnings and validation ( JENKINS-9670 , JENKINS-9045 , JENKINS-7407 , JENKINS-3133 ) Fixing cyclic dependency with subversion plugin in POM ( JENKINS-10370 ) Fixing 'after-the-fact' tagging of builds ( JENKINS-8128 ) Improved date format on CVS commands ( JENKINS-6119 , JENKINS-7833 ) Allowing macro/parameter expansion on input fields ( JENKINS-2318 , JENKINS-3821 ) Fixing missing CVS change log entries when 'use head if not found' is used ( JENKINS-12104 ) Potentially also fixes: JENKINS-1737 : Alternative Quiet Period Implementation (untested - updated polling should fix this) JENKINS-10843 : CVS Update (defect is unclear) JENKINS-427 : Cannot check out alias modules from CVS (untested - using rlog should fix this) It's probably worth updating the version number in the POM to 2.0 given the number/scale of these changes, although this hasn't been included as part of this request.

Michael Clarke added a comment - 2012-01-28 19:22 Cvs plugin version 2.0 uses rlog for polling and does not require a workspace so does not care about the state of the files currently checkout out at polling time
