From: Andres Freund Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2026 13:09:10 -0400 Subject: [PATCH v13a 8/9] ci: Make runs-on overridable Previously what runners CI ran on was hardcoded. Unfortunately that makes it harder to use faster or self hosted runners (e.g. in a private repository where the runners are very slow, or self hosted runners for cfbot). Fix that by allowing to override the runner types via repository/organization variables. How to do that is documented in src/tools/ci/README. Testing faster github hosted runners showed that we have some dependencies on specific locations, fix most of those. The remainder will be in a separate commit, changing how we deal with the msys2 installation.
