Hi, I want to load appveyor.yml from submodule to share between two projects.

For example, https://github.com/serverspec/serverspec has wercker.yml which symlinks to integration-test(submodule)/wercker.yml.
It works correctly on the wercker. Maybe, they sync submodule at the same time with clone main repository.

How I can do same as it ?
My current appveyor.yml is here https://github.com/serverspec/serverspec-integration-test/blob/master/appveyor.yml .

   Well, I guess you can if symlinked file can be fetched using GitHub API.

   Thank you for reply.

   What does it mean?
   Does the build follows symlinked file automatically ?
   Or, can I set url of appveyor.yml via Github API to custom configuration ?

   I mean API taking file contents: https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/contents/#get-contents

   Try in browser for your repo:

   https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/contents/appveyor.yml
