[PATCH 0/5] ci: replace our Azure Pipeline by GitHub Actions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Our Azure Pipeline has served us well over the course of the past year or
so, steadily catching issues before the respective patches hit the next 
branch.

There is a GitHub-native CI system now, though, called "GitHub Actions"
[https://github.com/features/actions] which is essentially on par with Azure
Pipelines as far as our needs are concerned, and it brings a couple of
advantages:

 * It is substantially easier to set up than Azure Pipelines: all you need
   is to add the YAML-based build definition, push to your fork on GitHub,
   and that's it.
 * The syntax is a bit easier to read than Azure Pipelines'.
 * We get more concurrent jobs (Azure Pipelines is limited to 10 concurrent
   jobs).

With this change, users also no longer need to open a PR at 
https://github.com/git/git or at https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git just to
get the benefit of a CI build. They just push to their fork on GitHub and
monitor the build. Easier than making apple pie.

The only caveat is that this will only work once the patch series makes it
to master. In the meantime, you can adore the CI build here:
