Does BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER ever wrap around or does it increase monotonically? It would be great if this could be documented. Thanks :-)

Hey @buchgr! The BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER will only ever increase and they're 64 bit. They're also per-pipeline, so we guarantee that they will always be unique within each pipeline. Let me know if you need any more info!

Thanks for the suggestion, I've added a note about this to PR #175 which is slated for release later this week 😊
