Pull changeset only after successful build
I am diving into HG from SVN so it's entirely possible I am approaching this wrong but here is what I envision:
- Developers push changesets to a "testing" repository
- TeamCity watches "testing" and runs builds accordingly
- Only on successful build, TeamCity pulls the good changeset over to a "clean" repository
- Developers clone / pull from "clean" only
I have been jumping through hoops all weekend trying to do this with a series of .bat files and psexec but I keep running into odd things with the way TeamCity runs command line build steps. (The latest of which is that TeamCity can't run a .bat file that 'call's other .bat files.... weird)
In any case, I am open to suggestions on the best way to architect this. It seems that SOMEONE out there has to be doing something like this... or maybe I am must missing the whole point of continuous integration?
(Yes, I know I can run local / personal builds with TeamCity but it doesn't seem necessary with DCVS?)
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Matt
