Martin Pradny's blog

I should be probably doing some work now, but the last three weeks were quite busy and a short blog post may help me to process all the information I gathered (or I'm just too tired to get any real work done as it looked like that half of Poland is going home for an extended weekend due to public holiday in Germany and I got home at 2AM instead of 11PM).

Job itself that I used was simple Pipeline from SCM, just with repo address. Let me know if you want to try it and get stuck. Many thanks to all sponsors,  organizers and attendees, who made SUTOL 2016 grea...
