Pants

Hey folks! I’m looking to see if I can run a fork of Pants in a Github Actions CI job on my own monorepo - I’m looking to verify a bugfix that I’ve submitted to Pants and I want to run Pants via my fork. Would it be sufficient to clone my fork within the CI job and then use the `PANTS_SOURCE` variable as described <https://www.pantsbuild.org/docs/running-pants-from-sources#running-pants-from-sources-in-other-repos|here>, or is there a better way to run a separate build of Pants?

Alternatively we JUST started building pants as a PEX. You could build that and make it available on the build machine, but there's a few hoops to get it running.

Ok thanks - glad to know I’m not off base :slightly_smiling_face:
