option to make all modules in a group build from the same SCM timestamp
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CONTINUUM-1285
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-1285
Project: Continuum
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core system
Affects Versions: 1.1-alpha-1
Reporter: Eirik Maus
In order to have better relations between the contents of the SCM and the
versions built, the SCM timestamp should be propagated to the triggered
dependent modules in a group, so all modules and deployable artifacts are build
from checkouts with the same timestamp. This will provide a better control of
the actual content of the deployables in environments where commits are
frequent. It also provides better tracking of errors, as the developer can
checkout the source code with the same timestamp for all affected modules.
Ideally, the timestamp appended to the name of the snapshot artifacts should be
the same (but this is not that important, since it is only a matter of seconds
difference).
Probably this should be an per-group selectable option: to choose either this
or "build dependent modules always from head-at-time-of-build" (today's
policy).
