Using Gitlab to build my project #430

Hi,

I’m setting up Bob in our GitLab CI/CD and I’d like your advice on enabling incremental builds.

Here is our current .gitlab-ci.yml (simplified below). It works, but whenever I merge a branch into main, Bob rebuilds the entire repository instead of only the changed sources and their dependencies. Our legacy codebase is large (~13,000 members), so full rebuilds are costly.

Could you point me to the correct configuration so that Bob rebuilds only what changed plus the transitive dependencies?

Bob version: 2.4.31

CI/CD logs are attached below for reference.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Best regards,
Olivier

Hi,

I ended up solving it with rsync. Here’s the approach:

The pipeline installs @ibm/ibmi-ci and @ibm/itest on the runner so it can connect to IBM i and run builds/tests(to do).

build_ibmi prepares two remote folders under /home/$IBMI_USER/builds/ics_${CI_COMMIT_REF_SLUG}:

stage/ receives the fresh sources from GitLab (ici --push).

work/ keeps the previous build state that Bob uses for incremental builds.

A remote rsync -rlp --checksum --delete copies only files that actually changed from stage/ to work/, preserving permissions and avoiding noisy artifacts (*.evfevent, .logs/).

Bob (makei build) runs inside work/, so it only rebuilds the impacted components (timestamps/content reflect the last effective change, not the upload time).

Best regards,

Olivier.
