Thanks for doing this @bubu! Its also a big step in bus factor: another big piece is moved off of CiaranG’s infrastructure. As long as the checkupdates job runs only on our runners, then we should be fine in terms of GitLab CI runner time. It is quite a bit of bandwidth, @bubu have you checked with the GCC cfarm admins whether that amount is OK? If not, I think it would be good to send them an email. Those boxes are setup as a compile farm, so they might not be on a network with cheap bandwidth.
