   6 NOTES FOR EMACS CONTINUOUS BUILD ON HYDRA
   7
   8 A continuous build for Emacs trunk can be found at
   9 http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/gnu/emacs-trunk
  10
  11 * It builds (and runs ERT tests) on these platforms:
  12 i686-cygwin
  13 i686-freebsd
  14 i686-linux
  15 x86_64-darwin
  16 x86_64-linux
  17
  18 * Mail notifications
  19 In addition to the web interface, Hydra can send notifications by
  20 email when the build status of a project changes—e.g., from
  21 `SUCCEEDED' to `FAILED'.  It sends notifications about build status in
  22 Emacs trunk to emacs-buildstatus@gnu.org.
  23
  24 If you want to receive these notifications, please subscribe at
  25 http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-buildstatus
  26
  27 * The Emacs jobset consists of the following jobs:
  28
  29 ** The `tarball' job
  30 which gets the source tree as input, and is just a `make dist' after
  31 some autoconf/-make or bootstrap script.
  32
  33 ** The `build' job
  34 which gets the result of the tarball job as input, together with
  35 system identifier, this job basically does a normal make and make install.
  36
  37 ** The 'coverage' job
  38 is now running `make check'.
  39
  40 * Nix expressions
  41 The recipe for GNU Emacs are available via Git:
  42 http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/hydra-recipes.git/tree/emacs
  43
  44 To modify the build job, email the patch to hydra-users@gnu.org.  The
  45 build recipes are written in the Nix language.
