Set Cruise Controls build number to start at a certain value for renamed project?

Question

I have a project that uses CruiseControl.NET, and as a versioning scheme we have 3.0.[ccnetbuild].[svnrevision]. CCNetBuild is the internal build number cruise control uses to keep track of how many builds of a project it has done. Now I have had to rename one of the CCNet project (rename in CCNets config file) and the [build] number now starts again from zero. Is there any way I can set it to start at a particular value (the last value I had with the original name) and make it increment from there? It must be stored in some internal CCNet database or something like that.

You need to edit the .state file of the CCNET project. Either you explicitly set its path using the State Manager Block in CCNET configuration or - if omitted - you'll find it in CCNET installation directory.
