Astrobot seems to repeat its messages

[mhvk]

I got three at astropy/astropy#8128

[pllim]

Yes, it is a known issue and probably some bug upstream on GitHub. @astrofrog tried adding a time.sleep but it didn't work.

[astrofrog]

It's more of a race condition than a bug - we just handle all the events from GitHub faster than GitHub can post the comment.

[mhvk]

Yes, github seems to have become much slower than it used to. I hope it is not meant just to get people to sign up for paid service.

[astrofrog]

This should now be fixed since I've changed astropy-bot to post individual status checks rather than a comment, so this shouldn't happen anymore in astropy-bot (but opening OpenAstronomy/baldrick#40 as a general baldrick issue)

[pllim]

@astrofrog , does the README need to be updated to document how to install the bot as "status check"? Or is this all being done under the hood over at Baldrick?

[astrofrog]

@pllim - that should be described in https://baldrick.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins.html - but feel free to open a PR for the README here if you think we can make things like that clearer.
