It might some day be useful for others, but it might not be. + +My motivation for this is that I don't have a separate server on which +to run a CI system, just my laptop, and this places some constraints +on things. What I need is something I can trigger manually. I use my +CI system to run something akin to "make check" for each project, but +also to build Debian packages in a clean way for various targets. + + +Name +---- + +Ick is short for Integrate Continuous Kludges, or possibly something +else. The name comes from an IRC discussion about CI systems, and it +was commented that they are all kind of icky. Daniel Silverstone +suggested "ick" as the name of a new CI system, and that inspired me +to write this thing. + + +Legalese +-------- + +Copyright 2015 Lars Wirzenius + +This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify +it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or +(at your option) any later version. + +This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
