Description Alexey Proskuryakov 2020-09-01 11:57:04 PDT

I see no way to tell which revision EWS tests against. Looking at https://ews-build.webkit.org/#/builders/32/builds/16546, I can only find a git hash. This makes it difficult to figure out why tests are failing.

We should be prominently exposing svn revisions.

We can expose git hash. However, EWS doesn’t know svn revision. We would need some way to convert git hash to corresponding svn revision.

Comment 2 Alexey Proskuryakov 2020-09-02 09:40:11 PDT

Right, we need to find a way to expose the svn revision. It's never ok to only expose a git hash - even when we migrate to git, everything in UI should be showing a manufactured revision.

Comment 4 Aakash Jain 2020-09-08 12:02:01 PDT

Do we have any service which can convert a WebKit git hash to corresponding svn revision?

Comment 5 Alexey Proskuryakov 2020-09-08 12:24:42 PDT

Maybe we should be using git-svn until we have git revision numbers.
