Interesting! BTW, it's also possible to run buildbot on revisions that are not
yet part of the repository, so we could e.g. have a script that triggers the
buildbot on the current local revision. I'm not sure if this feature is
currently enabled, and if yes, it's only enabled for people who are logged into
the buildbot (because of course this feature allows arbitrary code execution on
all buildslaves). So this could be an alternative that is easier to arrive at
from our current infrastructure. (I'm not saying I prefer either solution, just
wanted to mention the possibilities.)
