ci: Add continuous integration for github repositories via cirrus-ci.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Currently FreeBSD, Linux, macOS and Windows (Visual Studio) are tested.

The main goal of this integration is to make it easier to test in-development
patches across multiple platforms. This includes improving the testing done
automatically by cfbot [1] for commitfest entries.  It is *not* the goal to
supersede the buildfarm.

cirrus-ci [2] was chosen because it was already in use for cfbot, allows using
full VMs, has good OS coverage and allows accessing the full test results
without authentication (like a github account).  It might be worth adding
support for further CI providers, particularly ones supporting other git
forges, in the future.

To keep CI times tolerable, most platforms use pre-generated images. Some
platforms use containers, others use full VMs.

For instructions on how to enable the CI integration in a repository and
further details, see src/tools/ci/README
