486111 - compare-locales support for comparing source repo forests

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Attachment: add logic to compare just in the source dirs

I'm adding support for compare-locales to run tests just on the source repos.

That is, instead of doing a mobile checkout inside a mozilla-central for fennec and a releases/mozilla-1.9.1 checkout inside comm-central for thunderbird, I'm just using the hg repos as they live on the hg server, and compare them as such.

That works without touching any of the real comparison code, I just need to specialize the app enumeration, and to feed that baby, the l10n.ini parser.

The patch is running successfully locally on what I dub l10n master v2.

I'm using a up-front patch to the compare-locales repo as this is a slightly bigger change that might benefit from some review comments.

Attachment: piggy-back patch for buildbotcustom

I'd like to piggy-back this patch to buildbotcustom with this bug. It's the same downstream feature, and it's really just a small nit that I need for it.

This one needs landing on buildbotcustom.
