Question - how could I use this to build a cumulative delta based on a list of commit ids?

[rory-webber]

Hi,

Not sure if this is possible, but what I'd really like to be able to do is pass a list of commit ids, and have the plugin iterate over those and build a cumulative set of unique components that have been modified.

Is that possible with the current setup?

Thanks,

Rory.

Hi @rory-webber,

This is currently not possible with just one call of sgd. as no parameters allow this behavior.
But you could achieve the same thing with a script of your own.
Here is how I would do this :

1. call sgd in loop with --from and --to (where --to is the commit you want to evaluate and --from is <to>~1)
2. merge the generated package.xml

If you need to merge packages together into 1, suggest trying this out - https://github.com/mcarvin8/sf-package-combiner

It looks like a scenario where you want to cherry pick commits to do a hotfix per exemple.
You create a branch from the base branch and cherry pick all the commit you need for the hotfix release
And the use sgd to create the incremental package.

If your ok with that I close this question

Feel free to reopen it if you want to discuss more
