2012-07-27 Thread Matthew.Webber
We use the promoted builds plugin, and I've just discovered an annoying difference in behaviour depending on whether a custom workspace is used. Previously, I used a custom workspace: ${JENKINS_WORKSPACE_PARENT}/${JOB_NAME} When a promotion ran, the working directory was set to

There are several plugins which might be worth looking at. The “locks and latches” plugin has already been mentioned, but this is listed for possible deprecation (see https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Proposed+Plugin+Deprecation). You might want to look at the Exclusion plugin, which

How to set build description if build times out?

2012-06-19 Thread Matthew.Webber
The build timeout plugin (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Build-timeout+Plugin) has a job configuration checkbox Writing the build description (I think this was added in 1.9). However, there is nowhere to actually set the text of the build description in the event of a timeout.

Can you explain what you want to happen? If you are talking about a job that is triggered by a previous job, rather than by a user, who do you want to ask for input? There is no user to ask. I guess the question is, how are the consecutive jobs being run at the moment? From:

I think this is a consequence of the way subversion works. A subversion checkout of part of the repo (eg trunk/) has two revision numbers associated with it - the current revision number for the item (directory, file, whatever), and the last changed revision number. You can see these by using
