I'd like to say that for 18.2, we were using Mesa repository, not our own
repository. I think this was agreed in a thread some time ago. And I think this
should be kept for 18.3, so everything happens in the mesa repository.

FWIW, we use two branches:

- staging/18.2, where we push/rebase everyday
- staging/18.2-ci, which runs a more complete testsuite (IIRC, this runs 64bit
and 32bit tests), and that we only push once, just before making the pre-
announcement, in order to detect any issue not detected when pushing to
staging/18.2


As I said, it would be great if we continue using a similar approach for 18.3
branches.

Basically, we take a look at https://mesa-ci.01.org/, where the results for
staging/18.2 and staging/18.2-ci are pushed. In our side we do nothing, only
push commits to those branches.

If we see that no results were pushed, then we ask Clayton/Mark, as probably
something was broken in the CI and manually work is required.
