Use GitHub or Bitbucket button to sign up with your existing developer account (OAuth) or create an AppVeyor account using your email and password.
Authorize GitHub or BitBucket to list your repositories. For open-source project developers who are using the same GitHub account for both personal and private company repositories AppVeyor offers a choice between two scopes: public repositories exclusively or public and private.
For every project AppVeyor will configure webhooks for its repository to automatically start a build when you push the changes. For every private project AppVeyor will add an SSH public key (deployment key) to the clone repository on the build machine.
To kick-off a new build you can either push any changes to your repository or click New build on the project details screen.
AppVeyor will provision a new build virtual machine, clone the repository and pass the project through build, test and deploy phases (see Build pipeline).
