Scheduled builds in the GitHub Org folder shouldn't fail if the rate limit is exceeded

XMLWordPrintable

      On ci.jenkins.io there are a number of builds that are running on a schedule. Unfortunately, if the GitHub authentication token is being rate-limited (sigh) the builds will fail to execute at all:

Finished: FAILURE

      Note, this isn't triggered by a change, this is a manually kicked off build which shouldn't fail (IMO) if it cannot set the commit status. (especially at the beginning of the build!)
