But when I think about it, it would perhaps nevertheless be a good idea. A
script could somehow figure out what most receent revision that builds, and
then commit a snapshot of that. What revision that builds could be determined
by iteratively building, or query one of those cmake build farms(that's
possible? no?).
It would perhaps have some interesting effects on how development would
proceed. Everyone would be protected against build errors(if they use the
generated snapshot), and the snapshot would "stall" as soon someone breaks
the compile. Or perhaps confusion would be the result of all the
snapshots/copies.
HOwever, it would not be the same as kdelibs4_snapshot, since other factors
plays in when that one is tagged.
Cheers,
