There was a problem hiding this comment.
LGTM, works as advertised.
Note there's a typo (BUILDDIR instead of BUILD_DIR) in the PR description; not sure whether these are still committed in full text.
To those unfamiliar with the build system it may be surprising that BUILD_DIR is only used for pkg clones (while the actual building still happens in bin/ as usual); that behavior is not changed here.

Build succeeded! The publicly hosted instance of bors-ng is deprecated and will go away soon. If you want to self-host your own instance, instructions are here. If you want to switch to GitHub's built-in merge queue, visit their help page. |
