NOTES FOR EMACS CONTINUOUS BUILD ON EMBA A continuous build for Emacs can be found at , a Gitlab instance. It watches the Emacs git repository and starts a pipeline (jobset) if there are new changes. This happens for all Emacs branches. * Mail notifications In addition to the web interface, emba can send notifications by email when a job fails. It sends notifications about test status to . If you want to receive these notifications, please subscribe at . Alternatively, these notifications can be read via gmane at . The messages contain a URL to the log file of the failed job, like . * Emacs jobset The Emacs jobset is defined in the Emacs source tree, file '.gitlab-ci.yml'. It could be adapted for every Emacs branch, see . Every job runs in a Debian docker container. It uses the local clone of the Emacs git repository to perform a bootstrap and test of Emacs. This could happen for several jobs with changed configuration, compile and test parameters. There are different types of jobs: 'prep-image-base' is responsible to prepare the environment for the following jobs. 'build-image-*' jobs are responsible to compile Emacs in different configuration. The corresponding 'test-*' jobs run the ert tests. A special job is 'test-all-inotify', which runs 'make check-expensive'. While most of the jobs run as soon as a respective file has been committed into the Emacs git repository, this test job runs scheduled, every 8 hours. The log files for every test job are kept on the server for a week. They can be downloaded from the server, visiting the URL , and selecting the job in question. * Emba configuration The emba configuration files are hosted on . * Identifying emba Lisp packages, Makefiles, scripts, and other software could determine whether they run on emba by checking for the environment variable EMACS_EMBA_CI.
