Ah, no, you didn't. Although I think both are valid points, I think ci/lib.sh is expected to be used only inside a more predictable environment (e.g. we know the shell used is not a random POSIX shell but one that is happy with "export VAR=VAL"), so it should be OK. Showing the values of these variables in the log may still be good idea. > (Or move this 'set -ex' to the beginning of the script? Then we > could perhaps avoid similar issues in the future.) Sure (provided that it is an issue to begin with---if we are interested in the value of TRAVIS_BRANCH, for example, being able to see it only because "CI_BRANCH=$TRAVIS_BRANCH" assignment is made feels a bit sideways---we'd be better off explicitly logging anything we are interested in in the longer term, no?).
