@pwithnall This is a good point and something that bothers me too. I wonder if GitHub/GitLab CI have some other scheduling methods for building. In #buildbot for example, there are several scheduler types like only building nightly if there are changes instead of building after every push or it lets you set a "tree stable timer" which is the amount of time to wait after a push before starting a build.
Sigh… Using #IPv6 is still sooo fraught with problems & pitfalls that lurk deep in code bases. Latest project: #Buildbot As there wasn't much info out there on using it with #IPv6 (possibly even IPv6-only hosts), I've written up the notes I made configuring it in my environment: https://www.bunkus.org/blog/2022/11/running-buildbot-on-ipv6/

Hello tooters! I'm an #embedded #SoftwareEngineer using #c #cplusplus #sh #GNUMake #Perl #Buildroot #Buildbot #Javascript #Thrift #Bootstrap #EclipseCDT #KDE #Debian #Linux to make high speed #microwave #radio network devices.
Also I build and #ride #bicycles outside in #Devon and inside on #Zwift, enjoy #cooking, #beer, red #wine and #coffee 😋
In a different life I might have been in #infosec #particlephysics #astrophysics #chemistry or #robotics !

As much as I like Buildbot's approach of specifying build pipelines as code, it is a bit too object-oriented for my taste.
Finding a #CI solution, a story in about two thousand words: https://asylum.madhouse-project.org/blog/2018/09/17/finding-a-ci-solution/
I looked at #Jenkins, #GitLab CI/CD, #Phabricator, #GoCD, #StriderCD, #Buildbot, #laminar, #Concourse and #DroneCI, among others. The last one won.

A useful talk from Mozilla from #Releng 2013 on how to do parallel builds with #buildbot
Well, it was useful to me to learn how not to do parallel builds. 😜

Trying out BuildBot for FreedomBox nightly builds. I like it so far.
