Hi Peter,

Sorry for the bad experience, I'm not sure the meaning of "a branch as
building", is there a way to know the branch is not ready, or we can
postpone the test for a branch by a day?

yes, current the summary report only shows the errors that bisected
successfully in a cycle, but it may causes some errors missing
and old errors still in the report, we plan to redesign the report
to present all (may a lot) recent errors.
