Seeing how git-p4 has de facto taken over t98xx, declaring the former makes sense. I intend to introduce more features into git-p4 so it'll probably be practical to reserve more of the space for it, probably up to t9850. On declaring `git-p4` the sole approved use of python, I'm personally OK with it if there's no appetite to better integrate Python on Windows. > But yes, I think that we should probably "tack on" the Python 3.x tests to > the `linux-gcc` job. > > Or maybe finally split this job into three: ... > > The reason to split it off is this: on rare occasion, I have to restart > the `linux-gcc` job because _one_ of those `git-p4` tests failed due to > some reason or other, probably timing-related, I did not have time to > investigate this.
