maybe i'm not understanding but this will be able to build specific
branches so we can have some experimental code running in buildfarm?

The code can build and report on any branch that exists in the upstream
repository. But I don't want to accept reports on private branches on
the buildfarm server, at least on the dashboard. It's a subject worth
thinking about, though.

The branches that are built are controlled by the client owners, not by
me. That's the way things are in a distributed world -;)
