Cool! It improves my ugly bash to pull 2 weeks behind. :-)

With your patch, it is possible to never pull something. Because the
push are faster than the CI is able to build.
Therefore, an improvement could to be to check the latest commit on the
CI, if not available fallback to the previous, repeat until one is
available or repeat X time and raise a warning.
Cheers,
simon
