it depends on which kind of repository you're using. For linux [1], we
have the  'max' ones, covering from 4.2 to master, which contain one
commit per build. OTOH, we also have the dbgutil daily repos which are
build once a day. Finally, the 'all' repository contains 64 commits per
build.

Could you please tell us which repo you are using?
