Excellent! But an example like this presumably helps make Tom’s case that each branch could have a file that suggests which commit to use as the base for comparison, so that in this example it could be set to 344662848ac and the failures would go away. As it is, they will persist until a new tag is added or one overrides the base in the build farm client config.

Best,

David
