This changes the CI for the Cygwin job to be almost identical to the CI for the Ubuntu jobs. This is now possible because of some improvements to the
gap-actions/setup-cygwinaction and the rest of thegap-actionsstuff.I haven't actually merged the jobs, as I normally would and as I suggested in #82, because the Cygwin job is really slow (6 hours?), and so we don't want it to run whenever we run the Ubuntu jobs. So having it as a separate Workflow means that it can be triggered in different circumstances.
These circumstances now are manually, on schedule once a week, and I've newly added on pushes to
master, which is something that I think we do infrequently enough that it's worth the cost.I've run the Cygwin job on my fork, you can see it progressing at https://github.com/wilfwilson/vole/actions/workflows/cygwin.yml
Resolves #82.
