We run CI to ensure it builds and tests on Mac OSX, too. This is important to the VFS for Git group, as we work on making that work for Mac clients.

Hopefully we can learn from having this experimental feature in the wild and improve the patches on-list by fixing issues. We do have a desire to move as much as possible upstream. It's difficult to find time to pay down that "fork debt". Thanks, -Stolee
