Re: [cbi-dev] Some feedback on the build prototype 
Looking at 3.8M4 maps [1], it appears that current PDE/Build often picks
different tags from the projects coming from same git repository. Can I
assume this is left-over from CVS and single git commit will be used to
build all projects from one git repository?

The SSD would certainly give you an edge :-) even with primed local
caches my Quad Core at home takes about 15 minutes for the mvn clean
install (skip-tests)

    which
    likely explains the difference. How long does the current PDE/Build
    take?


To build the equinox  and eclipse SDK and generates the platform zips
can take between 2h and 3.5h, I think.

    This likely means I did not use the right feature.xml to include in
    org.eclipse.sdk.epp. I'll try to find the right ones when I update
    tycho-monolith-build branch to match Juno M4 sources.


Strangely enough it looks like most of the Eclipse 4 bundles (except
swt.addons) ended up in the packaged products, so they must have come
from somewhere.  It also might be the crossover for 3.8 features ... in
4.2, org.eclipse.rcp includes org.eclipse.e4.rcp which lists the core
Eclipse 4 bundles, and in the prototype product org.eclipse.rcp doesn't
include org.eclipse.e4.rcp.

    I will let Andrew decide on this one. When do you plan to switch over to
    4.2 build by default for the SDK?


The switch over will be during Juno M5 ... we'll end up with 4.2 primary
I builds and 4.2 nightlies, built the same way that the 3.8 I builds are
currently built.  There will still be a 3.8 I build each week.

I'll leave it up to the 2 of you to decide, but right now 4.2 is built
differently from most other builds, consuming large parts of 3.8,
building Eclipse 4, and hacking in all sorts of places (branding
features, some docs, etc).  The 3.8 build is representative of what we
need to do to build both SDKs, and the 4.2 build will be built similar
to 3.8 before M5 ... but I'd recommend working against 3.8 to avoid the
rapidly change structural target that 4.2 M5 will represent :-)

Later,
PW
