FYI The repo mirror at github is hooked up to Travis continuous integration (CI).
A build & test is started for each change to a branch and for each pull request. As well as each pull-request indicating the state of the build the full status of continuous integration can be seen at: https://travis-ci.org/apache/incubator-quarks You can click on Branches to see how build & test against master have been working. The Travis configuration is in this file: https://github.com/apache/incubator-quarks/blob/master/.travis.yml If you modify .travis.yml in a pull request then that's the version that will be used for that pull request, so changes to the CI setup can themselves be tested. If a CI test pull request fails due to an intermittent test failure, then the owner of the pull request can close it and re-open it to start a new cycle. Committers in general should not be merging pull requests that have failing builds or tests. Dan.
