So are you requesting we stop building on AppVeyor?

Since it runs gui tests, and Travis does not, it is very useful. For the last week, it has mostly always run.

Hi, It's the second time today that I get this error on a PR: "continuous-integration/appveyor/pr — AppVeyor was unable to build non-mergeable pull request"

I have seen this too, but seldom.

With such failure, it's not possible to merge a PR.

I believe I was allowed to, but when the new tests are gui tests, it is definitely questionable.

The error just occurred on a 2.7 change which is a single commit on top of the update to date 2.7 head: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/2877

For the other PR, I used the workaround found at: http://help.appveyor.com/discussions/problems/4830-stuck-on-appveyor-was-unable-to-build-non-mergeable

=> close the PR, reopen the PR

Thanks for the information.

It works around the issue, but it spams Travis CI which has to abort running jobs, and then restarts new jobs from scratch.

I quit worrying about that.
