CruiseControl.NET can’t get latest after creating new branch

I’ve got a build server set up for us running CruiseControl.NET. It pulls our latest code from a Kiln (HG) repository, builds, publishes, and will soon run some unit and integration tests.

Today I created our first branch in one of our projects, and CC.NET immediately broke.

I solved this by specifying the branch our CC.NET should use. Open your config file and add the following to your source control block:

<branch>default</branch>

I wanted it building the default branch, so I put in “default”. Replace it with whatever branch you use.
