techbase doesn't seem to answer today.
This script should be fine, it supports git too.
If not, we can fix this, but AFAIK it should be working with git.

This is like the minimal generic ctest script for running a nightly build.
It handles all the generic stuff like the bootstrapping problem, setting the 
directories, finding make, etc.

In some not-KDE project I use it everyday (with svn) and it works without 
problems.

I was working quite active on this until Akademy last year, but since then 
I've been completely busy with cmake/KDE frameworks.

You may want to have a look at cdash at home, which is an extension to cdash to 
schedule builds, so clients have to do less:

I'm not sure what Volker does really produces "Nightly build" results and not 
"just" a snapshot of the current build tree. It also does not solve the 
bootstrap problem.
