This branch is still built on Jenkins because it was not fully merged. git diff master...origin/web/14997-explain-better-verification-and-failure outputs a non-empty diff. Please either delete the branch or merge it. Thanks!

I’m not sure what happened here but all the content that I want from this branch is already live on the website: the content of the content of the diff shown with origin/web/14997-explain-better-verification-and-failure has already been applied to master.

So I’m deleting the remote branch.

Thanks for helping me make Jenkins happy. It was bothering me with this branch but I couldn’t understand why…
