Delete branch "actions-setup"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Motivation
We want to set up a basic continuous integration pipeline that automatically tests any changes to the Linux image. These tests should become a required check on pull requests.
Solution
I tried to get these running in a docker image, but trying to get a VM started from within a docker image was really complicated and fragile. Running the actions directly on the host was a lot easier, but now security is a risk since it runs as root and required modifying sudoers.
Setting up an isolated runner that exclusively runs these bare metal actions will mitigate those risks
