Subject: [PATCH] automation: save xen config before building
Date: Wed,  5 May 2021 11:45:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210505114516.456201-1-wl@xen.org> (raw)

It is reported that failed randconfig runs are missing the config file
which makes debugging impossible. Fix this by moving the line that
copies the config file before the build is executed.
