+Build configuration [can be found here][ref.rtems5build].
+Set `RSB_BUILD` to select the RTEMS toolchain release name/data from
+https://github.com/mdavidsaver/rsb/releases.
+
+RTEMS 5 builds need to be switched to ubuntu version >= 20
+(aka. **os: ubuntu-20.04** with GitHub Actions,
+**dist: focal** with Travis-CI or
+**image: ubuntu:focal** with GitLab CI/CD).
+
+## Cross Compilation
+
+Setting the `CI_CROSS_TARGETS` environment variable enables cross-compiling
+from Linux to the provided targets architectures.
+The value of the environment variable must  contain the EPICS architecture
+and - depending on the target - may contain additional information like
+the compiler prefix to be used or the version of the target OS.
+
+Multiple cross-targets can be added to the `CI_CROSS_TARGETS` variable
+by separating them with a colon (`:`) character.
+
+For example, possible values are:
+
+- linux-aarch64
+- linux-arm@arm-linux-gnueabi
+- linux-arm@arm-linux-gnueabihf
+- linux-ppc
+- linux-ppc64
+- win32-x86-mingw
+- windows-x64-mingw
+- RTEMS-pc386-qemu@4.9
+- RTEMS-pc386-qemu@4.10

+# GitHub Actions Scripts for EPICS Modules
+
+## Features
+
+ - 20 parallel runners on Linux/Windows (5 runners on MacOS)
+ - Ubuntu 18/20/22, MacOS 11/12, Windows Server 2019/2022
+ - Compile natively on Linux (gcc, clang)
+ - Compile natively on MacOS (clang)
+ - Compile natively on Windows (gcc/MinGW, Visual Studio 2019/2022)
+ - Cross-compile for Windows 32bit and 64bit using MinGW and WINE
+ - Cross-compile for RTEMS 4.9 and 4.10 (pc386, Base >= 3.15)
+ - Cross-compile for RTEMS 5 (10 BSPs, Base >= 7.0.5.1)
+ - Caching not supported yet.
+
+## How to Use these Scripts
+
+ 1. Add the ci-scripts respository as a Git Submodule
+    (see [README](../README.md) one level above).
+
+ 2. Add settings files defining which dependencies in which versions
+    you want to build against
+    (see [README](../README.md) one level above).
+
+ 3. Create a GitHub Actions configuration by copying one of the workflow 
+    examples into the directory `.github/workflows` of your module.
+    ```bash
+    $ mkdir -p .github/workflows
+    $ cp .ci/github-actions/ci-scripts-build.yml.example-full .github/workflows/ci-scripts-build.yml
+    ```
+	
+ 4. Edit the workflow configuration to include the build jobs you want
+    GitHub Actions to run.
+
+    Build jobs are specified in the `jobs: <job-name>: strategy:`
+    declaration. The `matrix:` element specifies the axes as configuration
+    parameters with their lists of values,
+    `env:` (on the build level) controls the setting of environment variables
+    (which can be matrix parameters).
+    The `runs-on:` setting specifies the image (operating system) of the
+    runner.
+    The `name:` is what shows up in the web interface for the workflow,
+    builds and jobs, and the elements under `steps:` describe the actions
+    executed for each job of the matrix.
+
+    Please check the comments in the examples for more hints, and the 
+    [GitHub Actions documentation](https://help.github.com/en/actions)
+    for a lot more options and details.
+
+ 5. Push your changes and click on the `Actions` tab of your GitHub repository
+    page to see your build results.
+
+## Specifics
+
+#### Quote Environment Variable Values
+
+Variable settings distinguish between numerical and string values.
+Better quote all branch and tag names. E.g.,
+```yaml
+env:
+  BASE: "7.0"
+```
+to avoid ci-scripts trying to `git clone` with `--branch 7`.
+
+## Caches
+
+GitHub Actions provides caching of dependencies.
+
+However, since their cache restore and create algorithm is fundamentally
+different from those used by Travis and AppVeyor, this will require some
+more changes in ci-scripts to work. Be patient.

+# GitLab CI/CD Scripts for EPICS Modules
+
+## Features
+
+ - Docker-based runners on Linux (one VM instance per job)
+ - Can use any Docker image from Dockerhub (the examples use
+  `ubuntu:bionic`)
+ - Compile natively using different compilers (gcc, clang)
+ - Cross-compile for Windows 32bit and 64bit using MinGW and WINE
+ - Cross-compile for RTEMS 4.9 and 4.10 (pc386, Base >= 3.15)
+ - Cross-compile for RTEMS 5 (10 BSPs, Base >= 7.0.5.1)
+ - Built dependencies are cached (for faster builds).
+
+## How to Use these Scripts
+
+ 1. Get an account on [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/), create a project
+    for your support module and have it mirror your upstream GitHub
+    repository. For more details, please refer to the
+    [GitLab CI/CD documentation](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/README.html).
+    
+    (This applies when using the free tier offered to open source
+    projects. Things will be different using an "Enterprise"
+    installation on customer hardware.)
+
+ 2. Add the ci-scripts respository as a Git Submodule
+    (see [README](../README.md) one level above).
+
+ 3. Add settings files defining which dependencies in which versions
+    you want to build against
+    (see [README](../README.md) one level above).
+
+ 4. Create a GitLab configuration by copying one of the examples into
+    the root directory of your module.
+    ```
+    $ cp .ci/gitlab/.gitlab-ci.yml.example-full .gitlab-ci.yml
+    ```
+	
+ 5. Edit the `.gitlab-ci.yml` configuration to include the jobs you want
+    GitLab CI/CD to run.
+
+    Build jobs are declared in the list at the end of the file.
+    Each element (starting with the un-indented line) defines the
+    settings for one build job. `extends:` specifies a template to use as
+    a default structure, `variables:` controls the setting of environment
+    variables (overwriting settings from the template).
+    Also see the comments in the examples for more hints, and the
+    [GitLab CI/CD documentation](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/README.html)
+    for more options and details.
+	
+ 6. Push your changes to GitHub, wait for the synchronization (every 5min)
+    and check [GitLab](https://gitlab.com/) for your build results.
+
+## Caches
+
+GitLab is configured to keep the caches separate for different jobs.
+
+However, changing the job description (in the `.gitlab-ci.yml` 
+configuration file) or its environment settings or changing a value
+inside a setup file will _not_ invalidate the cache - you will
+have to manually delete the caches through the GitLab web interface.
+
+Caches are automatically removed after approx. four weeks.
+Your jobs will have to rebuild them once in a while.
+
+## Miscellanea
+
+To use the feature to extract `.zip`/`.7z` archives by setting
+`*_HOOK` variables, the Linux and MacOS runners need the APT package
+`p7zip-full` resp. the Homebrew package `p7zip` installed.
