Tinderboxpushlog: no tree and NSS tree

[Serge Gautherie]

Hi,

1)
Could tpl return an error when a non-matching tree param is specified?
(instead of silently ignoring it: very confusing to get the FF trunk page)
Ideally, it would display the list of known trees.

2)
Does tpl work with cvs too?
If so, may I suggest to set up
http://tests.themasta.com/tinderboxpushlog/?tree=NSS
to monitor
http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=NSS
?

Thanks.

Great, two birds with one stone!

Nit:
Could you update the default page to have more than just the "FF3.5 |
FF3.6" links, (maybe even replace them).
At least, a third "other trees" link, though a list box (or popup) may
be just fine/better.

k.
Could it in the future?
Examples: NSS, ChatZilla (in SeaMonkey), maybe others.

It would have to learn to talk to Bonsai, which is probably a PITA. Hacking Bonsai sounds like an even worse idea. I think it'd make more sense to try to convince these projects to move to Hg.

Bonsai can return XML for any query with "&xml=true" on any valid URL.
It's not perfect, but good enough for Buildbot's BonsaiPoller.

May not be worth doing for tbpl, but probably easier than hacking
bonsai or trying to parse it's HTML output.

I had already filed
Bug 475011 - Create a pull-only hg mirror for Chatzilla
where we got some kind of agreement but no action yet.

I just filed
