Hi I am happy to announce that finally after more than two years we have a new version of the git-parameter plugin available.
As the previous maintainer Lukanus did not have time to work on this plugin I took over the work for the time being, but am happy that I could skype with him. It looks as he is interested in adding more features in the months to come. New user visible feature are (see also https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Parameter+Plugin) are: - Updated help texts for configuration and when selecting your tag/revision - Runs a fetch each time the user enters the "Build with parameter". - Run clone when fetch fails on workspace empty (Gabor Liptak) - Merging SortMode from graeme-hill - With an empty workspace the tags are calculated after we made a checkout. This may take a long time. Changes relevant to developer - Added MIT-LICENSE.txt to use the same license as Jenkins-CI. - Added Contributors.textile - Display month not minutes in date. Add HH.mm. Display only first 8 chars of SHA1 (Niklaus Giger) - Add backup pluginRepository (Gabor Liptak) - Use GitTool to query configured location of the git executable (gliptak) - Upgrade to git 2.2.0. (christ66) - Build against latest stable Jenkins-CI version 1.554.1 - New co-maintainer/developer Niklaus Giger (id ngiger) - Version 0.3 and 0.3.1 never made it to the distribution, because of problems with the release mechanism I "burned" versions 0.3 and 0.3.1 because - I had an old jenkins-ci id ngiger via ngiger at java.net I forgot it did exist. - using git/ssh in developerConnection did not work. scm:git:https works fine for me - mvn release:prepare release:perform did not work. Finally I used mvn deploy; mvn release:clean + adding -SNAPSHOT to version in pom.xml. Thanks to everybody who helped me, especially for those who had their patches laying around for years. It would be nice if you gave this version a chance! Best regards Niklaus -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Developers" group.
