Check out the #llvm-build channel.  In themain IRC channel, I block llvmbb, then just also listen in for my name in #llvm-build.  The bot has a different name there, so it is still possible to block in #llvm.

Hi,

llvmbb's job is to inform people of build breaks. However, it seems to trigger for a big list of bots, and at least one of them seems to always be broken, and the broken bots tend to have cycle times of several hours. So if you're on IRC and you commit something, you get pinged by llvmbb for hours afterwards.

Does anyone think llvmbb is useful?

The best thing about llvmbb I've heard it's easy to just "/ignore llvmbb", but if that's what everybody does then why not not have it in the first place?

Nico
