Hi,

The jenkins buckminster page says:

The working and data directory of buckminster is set to the directory of
the job workspace. This is especially useful if you want your code to be
checked out with Jenkins and only do a local resolution of the already
checked-out source code from within buckminster.

I'm not sure to understand the advantage of that. Is it supposed that I
checkout/clone directly into the job workspace root? The result is
that .git and .metadata are siblings. Is that really a good idea?

I would like to have the git checkout in job_workspace/git
and the bucky workspace in job_workspace_/workspace and the bucky output
in job_workspace/output, not everything mangled together. Maybe I miss a
piece?

Felix

Hi

I think that for the jenkins build is not that bad (while for
development IIRC having the data and the metadata in the same directory
is discouraged).

I think you can still specify the arguments to achieve that...

cheers

Maybe. I just want to keep it clean.

I'll have a look at the code later.

Grazie,
