An additional step we can take to help ensure that the ark-latest branch is always buildable is to prevent the scheduled job that creates the release from running (which also updates the ark-latest branch) if the scheduled job that merges content from upstream to os-build fails. Currently these two jobs run independently and are scheduled one hour apart. Also, if we keep them coupled together then as soon as the merge succeeds the release can be created.
