Experimental Physics and

I thought I understood Appveyor's need for a pointer to get the .appveyor.yml file from when building our epics-base-3 and epics-base-7 projects. The other day I had a brainwave that the “Custom configuration .yml file name” setting could be pointed to the raw link for that file on the appropriate branch, thus avoiding the need to separately update a gist every time we want to change that file.

However that doesn’t seem to work, I can’t get the epics-base-3 branch to see the last change I committed to that file on the 3.15 branch:

I just pointed it back to my gist and that seems to be working. Any ideas why it will happily accept

but not

?
