-Travis CI
-=========
-
-Support for using travis-ci has been added in order to automate pull-testing.
-See [travis-ci.org](https://travis-ci.org/) for more info
-
-This procedure is different than the pull-tester that came before it in a few
-ways.
-
-There is nothing to administer. This is a major feature as it means
-that builds have no local state. Because there is no ability to login to the
-builders to install packages (tools, dependencies, etc), the entire build
-procedure must instead be controlled by a declarative script `.travis.yml`.
-This script declares each build configuration, creates virtual machines as
-necessary, builds, then discards the virtual machines.
-
-A build matrix is constructed to test a wide range of configurations, rather
-than a single pass/fail. This helps to catch build failures and logic errors
-that present on platforms other than the ones the author has tested. This
-matrix is defined in the build script and can be changed at any time.
-
-All builders use the dependency-generator in the [depends dir](/depends), rather than
-using apt-get to install build dependencies. This guarantees that the tester
-is using the same versions as Gitian, so the build results are nearly identical
-to what would be found in a final release. However, this also means that builds
-will fail if new dependencies are introduced without being added to the
-dependency generator.
-
-In order to avoid rebuilding all dependencies for each build, the binaries are
-cached and re-used when possible. Changes in the dependency-generator will
-trigger cache-invalidation and rebuilds as necessary.
-
-These caches can be manually removed if necessary. This is one of the very few
-manual operations that is possible with Travis, and it can be done by the
-Dash Core committer via the Travis web interface.
-
-In some cases, secure strings may be needed for hiding sensitive info such as
-private keys or URLs. The travis client may be used to create these strings:
-http://docs.travis-ci.com/user/encryption-keys/
-
-For the details of the build descriptor, see the official docs:
-http://docs.travis-ci.com/user/build-configuration/
