There was a change introduced into the codebase that triggered the **Welcome to your Travis CI trial!** email and builds for repos without a `.travis.yml` file. This change was immediately reverted and there should be no builds triggered for repos without a .travis.yml and no changes to your account.

Travis CI remains and will remain free for open source projects.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
