Feature request - add more information to the stderr in the build log, to aid traige of failures #34

Closed BarryBo closed 7 years ago

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/project-everest/ci-logs/master/everest-interop-20170111090610.err is an example of an error log, which shows a problem, but not much about what component had the problem.

If the top-level build script wrote a message banner to stderr like:

Building miTLS

====== Building Kremlin

Then any stderr output from that component would be bracketed by headers. That would make it easier to triage failures back to the right project.

Good point -- the script prints some environment information but it isn't redirected to the log.
