Default back to lxc-start, with option for lxc-execute

2015-05-07T13:14:41+00:00

Fix issue #63: use lxc-execute instead of lxc-start

2015-05-07T12:57:17+00:00

Use virtio for disk in KVM instead of emulating real hardware

2014-11-07T12:02:33+00:00

This should improve I/O performance.

Copy target image as a sparse file in LXC mode

2014-11-07T12:02:24+00:00

This will save us from writing a lot of zeros on disk.

Bug 13215: Use 15GiB VM space if needed.

2014-09-22T11:55:42+00:00

With Firefox ESR 31 10GiB is not enough anymore to build Tor Browser for
64 Bit Linux systems. We bump the upper limit to 15GiB in order to
account for the additional capacity needed when starting with the
hardened build series.

Switch from rsync to tar for copy-to-target.

2014-07-15T22:09:26+00:00

In Ubuntu 14.04, rsync now fails on dangling symlinks.

Disable git fetching during build.

2014-02-06T14:17:52+00:00

We should perform all network activity beforehand, so builds can be done
on an offline machine.

Don't sanitize git commit names. They are authenticated for us.

2014-02-06T14:16:58+00:00

Also, we need to specify absolute paths like refs/tags/tagname, to avoid
ambiguity between actual tags and other refs.

Use lxcbr0 as bridge

2014-02-06T14:16:55+00:00

Include package name in the build output.

2014-02-06T14:15:26+00:00

For build processes with multiple descriptors, knowing the current descriptor
is very helpful.
