Queue options: revision to vairable

[Jerzy]

Hello,

in Queue Options, is it possible (and how) to:

1. set variable to revision selected in a repository (in " Repository Branch / Tag / Revision" section)?
2. have revision selected as default instead of branch in " Repository Branch / Tag / Revision" section?

Selecting changeset from repository is necessary to have log connected to correct changeset, and as of now our FinalBuilder projects needs that changeset as a parameter. But filling it twice is obvious redundancy.

Hi @Jerzy,

@Jerzy

set variable to revision selected in a repository (in " Repository Branch / Tag / Revision" section)?

You can use the expression $Source.RepoName.BuiltChangeset.RepositoryChangeId$ to get the revision or commit hash of the changeset used for the build. See Changeset Object for further changeset expressions.

This can be passed as a variable to your FinalBuilder project via the Variables field on the Variables tab of the FinalBuilder action.

e.g. revision=$Source.RepoName.BuiltChangeset.RepositoryChangeId$

@Jerzy

have revision selected as default instead of branch in " Repository Branch / Tag / Revision" section?

You cannot currently set a default selection on this page, but we will consider adding an option or property for this in the future.

Note that you can open the Queue Options dialog, with a specific revision selected, by clicking on the arrow to the left of the changeset in the Changes tab of the configuration view.
