[rkeene2]

My automated build/test server adds a tag (build-pass) to commits that pass the build and another tag (tests-pass) to builds that pass all tests.

So, instead of branching from trunk I would branch from tests-pass and that would be guaranteed to have been tested and pass, e.g.,:

$ fossil branch new my-new-feature tests-pass

I even added some CSS to make this look fancy: http://www.rkeene.org/viewer/tmp/fossil-with-tests.png.htm
