1152130 - b2g_desktop_build.py can't handle a branch name in gaia.json

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Build, defect)

Description

[Seth Fowler [:seth] [:s2h]]

The docs here suggest that you should be able to specify a git branch name in gaia.json to build with a custom gaia on try:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/ReleaseEngineering/TryServer#Using_a_custom_Gaia

This works fine for regular B2G, as far as I can tell, but fails on B2G Desktop with this traceback:
