This PR turns off the console logger during CI and produces a binary log file (which gets included in the Artifacts). It then reads the log file and reports warnings all at once. This appears to save at least a couple of minutes of build time. The binary log also has more complete details if there's an issue to investigate (the downside being the friction of needing a separate tool to interrogate it). |
