Quoting from Blog – Travis-CI We love our OSS teams who choose to build using TravisCI and we fully want to support that community. However, recently we have encountered significant abuse of the intention of this offering. Abusers have been tying up our build queues and causing performance reducti…

FWIW, the solution that I adopted (re: the lack of “skip-ci” with GitHub actions) was to just separate all the Julia versions I wanted to test in separate actions (see, e.g., https://github.com/JuliaOcean/AIBECS.jl/tree/master/.github/workflows ).

[image] ranocha: What are the alternatives - moving to GitHub actions for everything? I am entertaining the idea of moving my projects to Gitlab and setting up runners on my own home server. Eventually I expect that free tiers will be limited everywhere, as current free offerings will be swa…

Kinda what I was thinking. I’m not a heavy user and will take some time, but not forever, to hit 1000 mins. I’m looking for stability more than anything else. As @Tamas_Papp says, GitHub will likely start charging sooner or later.

I think Drone CI is at the moment best self-hosted CI service. It’s fully FOSS, available both as service, runners or both. Both service and runners can be hosted either in cloud (with some free tier for Open Source projects) or self-hosted. Finally, contrarily to Gitlab CI or Github Actions, it’s n…

Just got GitHub Actions working and solved the skip ci koan. I think I’m happy, I still have a bit of testing to do to make sure the CI banner works. This was pretty painless.

Thinking more about this, if we had telemetry data about package usage then perhaps a list of repos for “serious” (= not set up for CI abuse, but actually used by Julia users) packages could be communicated to Travis and similar services, asking them for a small automatic quota.

For users looking to quickly and easily switch from Travis CI to GitHub Actions, I have posted a simple CI workflow file here: Easy workflow file for setting up GitHub Actions CI for your Julia package

The limit is per account or per repo?

Also, as someone who uses Travis but not heavily (only a few packages), do I need to worry about this right now?
