'.gitlab-ci.yml'. It could be adapted for every Emacs branch, see
<https://emba.gnu.org/help/ci/yaml/README.md>.
A jobset on Gitlab is called pipeline. Emacs pipelines run through
the stages 'build-images', 'platform-images' and 'native-comp-images'
(create an Emacs instance by 'make bootstrap' with different
configuration parameters) as well as 'normal', 'slow', 'platforms' and
'native-comp' (run respective test jobs based on the produced images).
Every job runs in a Debian docker container. It uses the local clone
of the Emacs git repository to perform a bootstrap and test of Emacs.
This could happen for several jobs with changed configuration, compile
and test parameters.
There are different types of jobs: 'prep-image-base' is responsible to
prepare the environment for the following jobs. 'build-image-*' jobs
are responsible to compile Emacs in different configuration. The
corresponding 'test-*' jobs run the ert tests.
The 'build-image-*' jobs of the different '*-images' stages run only
if there are severe changes in the Emacs sources, like in Makefiles
etc. Otherwise they are skipped, and the corresponding 'test-*' jobs
run just 'make -C test ...' in the respective Docker image from a
previous build run.
A special job is 'test-all-inotify', which runs 'make check-expensive'.
While most of the jobs run as soon as a respective file has been
committed into the Emacs git repository, this test job runs scheduled,
every 8 hours.
Jobs in the 'build-images' and 'normal' stages are triggered by
changes of respective files in the Emacs git repository. All other
jobs run scheduled in a pipeline every 8 hours.
The log files for every test job are kept on the server for a week.
They can be downloaded from the server, visiting the URL
