Bitbucket git repo docs stuck in past commit

[miohtama]

I am hosting a Python + Sphinx project on a Bitbucket. This uses Bitbucket Git, not Mercual, repo: https://bitbucket.org/miohtama/cryptoassets/commits/all

Somehow RTD does not correctly get the latest commit, but is stuck in the past revision and builds old docs. For example builds here:

https://readthedocs.org/builds/cryptoassetscore/2054391/

https://readthedocs.org/builds/cryptoassetscore/2054345/

Have the same commit id e940a870685a65e18fb3b0ea38f57ed718aeed6e

However, this commit was done more than 12 hours ago and a lot of new commits have appeared since: https://bitbucket.org/miohtama/cryptoassets/commits/all

My culprints why this fails could be

• Some BitBucket webhook sends in wrong commit id (is there a way to check this)
• RTD caches git repos and fails to fetch the new commits correctly

Meanwhile e.g. drone.io CI service gets new commits and builds through succesfully https://drone.io/bitbucket.org/miohtama/cryptoassets/

How to further diagnose, any ideas?

Also I was thinking maybe because https://bitbucket.org/miohtama/cryptoassets.git serves both Git repo and HTML splash page (user agent detection?) could have something to do with it.

Just for further debugging:

  curl -X POST http://readthedocs.org/build/cryptoassetscore 

... does not fetch the latest commit. ATM it seems to be always building commit 3dfb6fbeadb7d6411d0e5490fced6bdf7d79debb. So the error is definitely on rtd.org side.

Wiping out build environment solved the issue
