For some reason, hg clone from a local (path-based) repo will fail if
the parent directory of the destination directory doesn't exist (though
it succeeds when cloning from an http repo).

Previously, for scheduled builds, "timestamp" contained the time the
build was added to the queue, while for finished builds, it was the
time the build finished. Now it's always the former.
The revision counting changes depending on which revision is cloned
initially, so clone the default branch first and then checkout the
required revision to match hydra's revCount.

This allows checking a jobset (say) at most once a day. It's also
possible to disable polling by setting the interval to 0. This is
useful for jobsets that use push notification or are manually
evaluated.
You can now do:
bash <(curl http://hydra-server/build/1238757/reproduce)
to download and execute a script that reproduces a Hydra build
locally. This script fetches all inputs (e.g. Git repositories) and
then invokes nix-build.
The downloaded sources are stored in /tmp/build-<buildid> and reused
between invocations of the script.
Any additional command line options are passed to nix-build. So
bash <(curl http://hydra-server/build/1238757/reproduce) --run-env
will drop you in a shell where you can interactively hack on the
build, e.g.
$ source $stdenv/setup
$ set +e
$ unpackPhase
$ cd $sourceRoot
$ configurePhase
$ emacs foo.c &
$ make
and so on.
So now "?compare=<jobset name>" is no longer a hidden feature!
P.S. Encountered this wonderful TemplateToolkit brainfuck again: if
you want to get the number of rows in (say) project.jobsets, you can't
say "project.jobsets.size". That will *usually* give the right
result, except that if there is only one row in project.jobsets, it
will evaluate to 3. Instead you have to use "project.jobsets_rs.count".
