Hello everyone,

A couple weeks ago I created https://prs.nix.gsc.io/, a Hydra server
which builds every PR. Every PR will exist at
https://prs.nix.gsc.io/jobset/nixos/pr-PRNUMBER.

It features:
 - a web-hook, which means:
 - the moment a PR is created, the jobset is created on this hydra
 - every time a PR is updated, the jobset is triggered
 - every time there is a commit to master, the master jobset is
   triggered


Wow, this is fantastic news. This should really help with the quality and
confidence of PRs. This will hopefully also improve merge throughout.

The one question I have is will this show up on the GitHub PR page or will
I have to remember the URL myself. Either way it is super useful but if it
could integrate with the GitHub status API that would be much easier for
maintainers and new submitters alike.

Huge thanks to you and Package.net. (I've been interested in running an arm
server for a while so I'll check them out 😀)
