Thanks for all your efforts Chesnay, it indeed improves a lot for our
develop experience. BTW, do you know how to find the master branch
information which the CI runs with?

For example, like this one:
https://travis-ci.com/flink-ci/flink/jobs/214542568
It shows pass with the commits, which rebased on the master when the CI
is triggered. But it's both possible that the master branch CI runs on is
the
same or different with current master. If it's the same, I can simply rely
on the
passed information to push commits, but if it's not, I think i should find
another
way to re-trigger tests based on the newest master.

Do you know where can I get such information?

Best,
Kurt
