GitHub: Loosen branch-time.yml check This check should require that the current GitHub HEAD commit is at or past the latest upstream commit as of 24 hours ago. Effectively, this checks that the import has run and succeeded in the last 24 hours. This loosens the behavior from what was previously checked: that the time between the GitHub HEAD and the upstream HEAD is at most 24 hours. Since commits may be more than 24 hours apart, this is a less useful condition to check.

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
