            Bug ID: 195
           Summary: "Applied on" commit id and "baseline" commit id issues
           Product: lab
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: CONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: dashboard

  Target Milestone: ---

Patches get applied on the baseline. This is shown on the dashboard for each
patchset.

The "baseline" represents both the commit id the patch was applied on and the
commit id of the baseline used.

However, since introducing retesting of patchsets, there is a possibility that
the baseline has changed (since these are not saved), thus the results being
different than what the "baseline" on the dashboard actually means.

Essentially to fix the confusion:

Rename "baseline" to "applied on" (since this information is saved when
generating the tarball), similar to when an apply error or build error occurs.
Add a "baseline" commit id to each individual test run (instead of representing
the whole patchset).

This may be a more noticeable issue once subtree testing comes into play.
