We tried setting up a CI/CD process for git on NonStop. The problem is that we use Jenkins, which gets triggered each time a change is made on a branch. The actual difficulty is that a single run takes more than a day. Once the committer adds each commit to a branch, we end up with a queue that is 2-3 weeks long, so end up not running a continuous process. Instead, we run about 1 a week, which should catch things. The difficulty is with the latest release is that 2.25.2 came out before our cycle and the breaks were in there because of changes to one test that just did not end up dequeuing in time. NonStop is building and testing fine now after Peff's suggestion on SHELL_PATH, but that was only apparent at 2.52.2. 2.51.1 did not have this issue with our inadvertent use of ksh to run each test script.
