Good advice.

I think you missed my pull request mentioned above, I don't might
mention again ;-)
https://github.com/Alexpux/MSYS2-packages/pull/319
(Seems not a good idea to write long mail, heh)

I already put most scripts I need in the ./appveyor folder, I can move
them to ./continuous-integration/AppVeyor if you like, but the
original location would be easier for me.

No problem, I can improve my script to support them.

Possible, I think I can give them a try.

Those logs are already saved to Amazon S3 clould storage by default,
anyone could browse the history from
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/fracting/msys2-packages/history
