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.

See here for details about the hardware.

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

To enable buildbot add the repository to the repoAllowlist in this file.

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.
