---------------------+---------------------------
 I have seen some instances where running `codecov` in CircleCI is merely
 uploading `misc/coding_tools/coverage.el` (which is definitely not a
 coverage report!), and not `coverage.xml` or anything else actually
 related to code coverage.

 I'm not sure if this happens because `coverage.xml` wasn't generated
 during some CircleCI runs, or because of any issues with `codecov`
 uploader itself. In the more recent CI runs I've looked at, we've been
 uploading both `coverage.xml` and `coverage.el`, so perhaps part of this
 problem has been already fixed.

 I'm not sure uploading `coverage.el` does any harm, but it can't be doing
 anything useful either.

 See this [[https://codecov.io/gh/tahoe-lafs/tahoe-
 lafs/commit/bce701d5bc810b71c07d2b7142a59aaac28a45e4/build|specific
 instance]], for an example of just `coverage.el` being uploaded:
