SCALABLE CODE REPOSITORY WITH GREEN MASTER

Abstract:

A green master is maintained in a code repository. A code management system receives changes to the code and maintains an ordered revision queue. A hierarchical set of builds is defined with each build corresponding to a code change. A model is applied to determine a value for each build, with the value being based on the probability that the build will ultimately be used. A build schedule is determined based on the values for the builds and at least some of the builds are implemented to determine whether committing the corresponding code changes keep the master green or not. Code changes that keep master green are committed to the code repository.
