Anthill 1.5.5 Hits the Streets

in


Anthill is the logical progression of the Ant build tool, and could be considered similar to Gump for a single project.  It makes automated building, testing, and deployment, and makes the stats easy to visualize.  Here are the changes to this version:

A build status indicator has been added to the main page. Now you can see whether the last build of any project succeeded or failed right on the main Anthill page. Tagging the source repository can be configured to happen always, only on successful builds, or never. The build email messages can now be customized based on a template. JVM properties can be configured for when Anthill invokes Ant. For example, the initial and max heap sizes can be set. Ant 1.5.1 is now included in the distribution of Anthill. There are also many bugfixes.
