Continuous integration

We provide CI for these platforms:

Both aarch64-linux and x86_64-linux have support for kvm/nixos-test.

We only have limited build capacity for *-darwin so please don't use it excessively.

Buildbot is the only CI system that supports pull requests from forked repositories.

To enable buildbot add the nix-community-buildbot topic to the repository.

Newly enabled repos are imported into buildbot twice a day, you can also ask the admins to trigger an import manually.

To enable hercules go to https://hercules-ci.com/github/nix-community/$REPO and click "Build this repository".

To enable hydra add a new project in this file.

All of the above builds are pushed to the cache.

See here for details.
