Dependency tree should be constrained to only contain relevant nodes in the path

XMLWordPrintable

      When on the job page for Test.Job.3 and I click the sidebar link for the dependency graph (URL looks something like http://jenkins.url/job/Test.Job.3/depgraph-view/?), the graph should not include Test.Job.4.

          [JENKINS-15218] Dependency tree should be constrained to only contain relevant nodes in the path

          The idea of the DependencyGraph View is to always show the weakly connected component containing the node. So this is desired behavior. What is the reason you do not want to have Test.Job.4 in the graph?

          In my organization we have a very wide dependency trees where numerous projects utilize our core library package (i.e., Test.Job.1). When inside the job page of a particular project (i.e., Test.Job.3), I don't care about all of the other jobs (i.e., Test.Job.4) that also happen to utilize Test.Job.1. In my mind, I think it more intuitive that only those jobs that are actually dependencies are shown. Could this be made configurable?

          I am in the same situation as David. It would be nice to see this as a feature maybe, where it can be configurable to our particular escenario.

          What about an option to provide a regex pattern of jobs to exclude or include?
