To remedy this lack, using the same ssh key you use for sftp package upload, package maintainers can now also push to git repositories, like so:

Package maintainers may have noticed that the output from pushing to these git repositories now includes a line like:

"remote: scallywag: build nnn queued"

This is a *prototype* of a system to automatically build the packages, where the results appear (some time later) at [1] (URL subject to change)

[1] https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/jobs.cgi

Currently, many packages will fail to build correctly due to:

I now have built an (opt-in) system which fetches the packages built by this into your upload area and triggers calm to process them, which I'm looking for a volunteer to test.

I'd be willing to give it a try the next time I have something to upload. I'm actually almost ready for a test release of doxygen. Unfortunately, the 32-bit scallywag build of doxygen consistently fails with an ld crash, even though I can build it locally. So I can't use it for this test.

How does the opt-in process work? Is it per package? Is it easy to opt-out again temporarily?

Currently, these packages are built using 'cygport all-test', and so will always be marked test:

One possible issue is that a git commit doesn't have to change VERSION or RELEASE, so this can build packages which are then immediately rejected by calm, as that PVR already exists.

Does calm delete them after rejecting them or does the maintainer have to do 
that?

I'm not sure if that's a real problem, or what the workflow should look like in regards to that.

I don't see it as a real problem, as long as all it means is that I get an email from calm. But if I also have to manually delete the packages from my upload area, that could be annoying.
