Hi,
In my company we have the scenario that our application (RCP/SWT application) uses multiple repositories, which have dependencies between them and must build together
(Namely its using a PDE Build for the entire product. Feature build is not practical in our scenario)
I'm searching if there is a way to integrate the multi GIT repositories with Gerrit and a Jenkins Build Validation when our delivery goes into multiple repositories (and may eventually have dependencies).
I've now seen that Repo tool can somehow coordinate these pushes to multiple repositories, and that Jenkins Gerrit plugin supports using the Repo (eventually with Topics?).
If this Repo push could produce some event so that Jenkins could understand which branch / ref from each repository to fetch and build it would solve our problem! (which is somehow a common problem without good solutions so far).
Can anyone confirm if this is somehow true, or if I'm missing something?
Unfortunately I can't find any concrete documentation online on how to orchestrate these tools and I'm quite lost on it.. anyone can help?
Thanks in advance
