983031 - update the bugzilla push script to always pull from HEAD instead of using the current-production tag

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: Infrastructure, defect)

Description

[:glob ✱]

please update the bugzilla push script to always pull from HEAD instead of using the current-production tag.

the primary reason for this is tags aren't being mirrored from git to bzr.


process-wise i don't think we should change anything now.

we should continue to move the current-production tag during the push process (yes, this isn't very git-like, but it isn't bzr-like either, and requires a --force in both systems).


we should look at changing the workflow when we move to updating the webheads from git instead of bzr (bug 973298) eg. create a current-production branch.

Ok, I think it's just as simple as:

-bzrup="bzr pull --overwrite -rtag:$tag"
+bzrup="bzr pull --overwrite"

-  bzr log -n0 -r ${currev}..tag:${tag} | /root/bin/timestamp | tee -a "$logfile";
+  bzr log -n0 -r ${currev}.. | /root/bin/timestamp | tee -a "$logfile";

If you'd prefer we could stick with '-1' in place of 'tag:$tag', but I believe they're equivalent (and appears to have behaved correctly in testing).

Commited in r84328. BMO update docs have been updated. May require manually HUP'ing :ashish, though.
