Hi,
I discovered that the repository contains a bunch of build scripts in the
/tools/buildbot directory[1].
I assume these were used by builders in ASF's buildbot[2] but I have never
seen any builds for Serf there - I assume it wasn't migrated when ASF
updated buildbot a few years ago.
Currently we use GitHub Actions (it seems we don't have a Macos build but
it should be easy enough to borrow from Subversion)
We do, too have a macOS build. :-D Just not very automated.
I don't see a GHA for macOS in Subversion. Is is somewhere else than on
trunk?
so I think there isn't
any interest in getting buildbot up again. We don't have support for
Solaris but in reality I don't think that is a big problem.
It is quite a problem because we have Solaris-specific code (at least in
SConstruct, if not elsewhere), so it would not be too bad if we could
test that. I tried setting up a Solaris VM in KVM, but no luck there ...
evidently my sparc emulation wasn't.[1]
Instead of having the scripts rotting in the repository, I suggest to
remove it completely. It is easy enough to go back in history if someone
wants to take a look.
I'd just add a README that those scripts are obsolete and not used. That
makes them easier to find, since you don't have to know that they're
somewhere in the history.
