Today we enabled HoundCI on the katello core repository. To make sure that HoundCI properly checks your PR, *please rebase against master*. Your branch should have a .hound.yml file or else HoundCI will use its default config (which differs from ours).
Also, we’re trying this out over the next couple weeks so please respond to this thread with any feedback or thoughts you have on using HoundCI. Thanks.
