[CI] Spend the ccache quota on the legs that still thrash (#7781)
* [CI] Spend the ccache quota on the legs that still thrash

Arch and Debian 13 were the two bounds that still evicted entries they
needed: on master 2026-11-06 Arch served 75% of calls at 96% full and
Debian 13 82% at 96%, while Fedora 45 debug/release served 99.5% at 80%.
Their working sets measure 820 MB and 770 MB, so 850M and 800M could not
hold one configuration.

Raise Arch to 1200M and Debian 13 to 1050M, and drop the macOS 14 cache:
its 800M bound served 42% and saved about 32s on a 20 min leg that is
already shorter than the Windows leg. That frees 800M and leaves the
bounds at 3.9 GB, with the measured quota at about 7.8 GB of 10.

Also document why pull requests, tags and nightlies never write: a PR
save would evict the warm set, tags build full DWARF, and a schedule
shares refs/heads/master with the push. No behavior change there.

* [CI] Correct the quota estimate in the ccache sizing comment

The 7.8 GB figure subtracted the dropped macOS bound without adding the
600 MB Arch/Debian increase. The fixed entries are about 4.4 GB, so
3.9 GB of bounds puts the estimate at about 8.3 GB of 10.

* [CI] Size the Arch and Debian bounds to the measured working set

* [CI] Keep the measured ccache bounds instead of raising them

Steady-state master shows Arch at 90.1% and Debian 13 at 96.75% per-run
hits on the existing 850M/800M bounds. The 75%/82% that motivated the
increase were warming runs right after the -g1 switch invalidated the
cache, not thrashing. Keep the bounds, keep the macOS 14 cache drop.

Cockatrice

Cockatrice is an open-source, multiplatform application for playing tabletop card games over a network. The program's server design prevents users from manipulating the game for unfair advantage. The client also provides a single-player mode, which allows users to brew while offline.

This project uses C++ and the Qt libraries.

Code

To commit code to the project, please review our Contribution Guidelines first.
We maintain two tags for contributors to easier find issues to potentially work on:

  • Good first issue
    Issues tagged in this way provide a simple way to get started. They don't require much experience to be worked on.
  • Help wanted
    This tag is used for issues that we are looking for somebody to pick up. Often this is for feature suggestions we support, but don't have the time to work on ourselves.

For both tags, we're willing to provide help to contributors in showing them where and how they can make changes, as well as code reviews for submitted changes.
We'll happily advice on how best to implement a feature, or we can show you where the codebase is doing something similar before you get too far along - put a note on an issue you want to discuss more on!

You can also have a look at our Todo List in our Code Documentation or search the repo for \todo comments.

Documentation CI Docs

There are various places where useful information for different needs are maintained:

Cockatrice tries to use the Google Developer Documentation Style Guide to ensure consistent documentation.
We encourage everybody to improve the documentation by suggesting edits based on this guide.

Translation Transifex Project

Cockatrice uses Transifex to manage translations. You can help us bring Cockatrice and Oracle to your language and just adjust single wordings right from within your browser by visiting our Transifex project page. The Webatrice web client manages its own translations in its repo.

Check out our Translator FAQ for more information about getting involved, and join a group of hundreds of others!

Build CI Desktop CI Docker

Dependencies: (for minimum versions search our CMake file)

Oracle can optionally use some packages to load compressed card files:


Basic compilation steps:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

You can then

  • Create a Cockatrice installation inside the release folder:
    make install
    
  • Or make an installation package specific to your system:
    make package
    

Note

Detailed compiling instructions can be found in the Cockatrice wiki at Compiling Cockatrice


The following flags (with their non-default values) can be passed to cmake:

Flag Description
-DWITH_SERVER=1 Build Servatrice server
-DWITH_CLIENT=0 Don't build Cockatrice client
-DWITH_ORACLE=0 Don't build Oracle card database tool
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug Compile in debug mode
Enables extra logging output, debug symbols, and much more verbose compiler warnings
-DWARNING_AS_ERROR=0 Don't treat compilation warnings as errors in debug mode
-DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=1 Configure make to update the translation .ts files for new strings in the source code
Note: make clean will remove the .ts files
-DTEST=1 Enable regression tests
Note: make test to run tests, googletest will be downloaded if not available

Tip

Build code documentation (Doxygen) according to our configuration into /docs:

doxygen Doxyfile

Run

Cockatrice is the game client
Oracle fetches card data
Servatrice is the server

Docker

You can build an image & deploy a Servatrice (Cockatrice server) container using Docker and our Dockerfile yourself.

For more details, look into our wiki section on Setting up Servatrice.
You'll also find more hints on our pre-build image there, or the docker-compose file which will configure and run both a MySQL server and Servatrice.
