Documentation

Overview

The gitilesfollower executable monitors the repo we are tracking using gitiles. It fills in the GitCommits table, specifically making a mapping between a GitHash and CommitID. The CommitID is based on the "index" of the commit (i.e. how many commits since the initial commit).

This will be used by all clients that have their tests in the same repo as the code under test. Clients with more complex repo structures, will need to have an alternate way of linking commit_id to git_hash.
