GitHub CI @ travis-ci.com Albrecht Schlosser Nov 30, 2020  
 
All,

FYI: our CI (continuous integration) builds on GitHub are currently not working because we ran out of Travis-CI "Credits".

I contacted the Travis-CI support last week but I'm still waiting for a response (other than "Thank you for reaching out to Travis-CI Support. This is an automated message to notify you that we have received your ticket...").


Background: beginning with Nov. 2, 2020 the travis-ci folks introduced a billing system for their services.

They say it's still free for Open Source projects but it's more complicated than that. When they introduced the billing system every user got 10,000 Credits for free (trial), where one minute of build time costs different amounts of credits (off the top of my head):

 - Linux:   10 Credits/minute
 - Windows: 20 Credits/minute
 - macOS:   50 Credits/minute

Unfortunately our macOS builds ran very, very long in the past due to a possible misconfiguration. We used the default "macOS build image" and updated (CI-build) software with "brew install" (or similar) to the latest versions. This took the largest amount of time and is very likely not necessary. I'll come back to this point later in a separate thread during the next days.

This went unnoticed during the last weeks/months and I also was not aware that this can have such an effect on our travis-ci service.

Meanwhile our (i.e. my own) balance is negative (-2,300 Credits) and I requested "OSS Credits" so we can proceed with our CI builds but, as I wrote above, I'm still waiting for a response. I'll keep you updated here in this thread about any progress.

PS: if anybody can contribute to the correct way to get "OSS Credits" from travis-ci.com or how we can make sure that we can further build our project (free of charge) on travis-ci.com, all help would be very much appreciated.

PPS, FYI: our FLTK project's CI builds are currently running under my personal travis-ci.com account which is linked to my GitHub account which is used to trigger the CI builds for every commit - as far as I understand how this all works.
