@andrew-m-leonard Yes, pushing an empty commit is much better. The Skara tooling will automatically squash all commits in the PR when it is integrated, so it will be fully invisible in the end.

But there is a way to trigger re-runs, although I realize is has close to zero visibility (I'll need to blame Github for that :-().

Go to your personal fork of the JDK, select the "Actions" tab, select "Pre-submit tests" in the list to the left, and then press the `Run workflow` button in the cyan `This workflow has a workflow_dispatch event trigger.` field.

There you can select branch to run, and also additionally modify the set of platforms run.
