Some parts of the infrastructure could do with some TLC.
I'm not familiar with the acronym 'TLC'.
CI currently uses semaphore CI for native x86_64, and Buildkite
with a couple
hosted Linux VMs for testing various cross-compilers. I used
to have ARM and
ARM64 bare metal servers with Scaleway, but sadly they decided
to scrap them.
Ideas that could be investigated:
1. Is Cirrus CI good enough to build gdc? And if so, look
into adding
Windows, MacOSX, and FreeBSD platforms to the pipeline.
What does 'good enough' mean ?
I found this reply (March/2019) by Johannes Pfau here [1]:
We use https://github.com/D-Programming-GDC/gcc for CI, but
commits will go to the GCC SVN first, so GCC SVN or snapshot
tarballs is the recommended way to get the latest GDC.
Is this information still up to date ?
There's a semaphore folder. I suppose that's the one currently
used with Semaphore CI. Is there something else ?
