Yeah. I enable cirrus selectively on my github repos, which makes it
close to impossible to get an unwanted effect.
One of the things I like about this is that it institutionalizes some
knowledge that has hitherto been mostly private. I have a lot of this in
a setup I use for spinning up test instances, but this makes a lot of
that sort of knowledge more broadly available.
I hope it will also encourage people to test more widely, given how easy
it will make it.
