Jenkins 1.495 Ubuntu 12.04.1
If build 5 has already been promoted, one cannot then promote build 4, as the copy artifacts plugin permalink options only allow "Latest promoted XXX" where XXX is the type of promotion.
It won't complain, but you'll get the artifacts from build 5, not build 4 as build 5 is a later build than 4 and is already promoted.
I'd like a permalink option defined as "build from which promotion was triggered".
A workaround is described here:
http://overwatering.org/blog/2012/04/promotions-with-jenkins/
where they also describe the copy-artifacts mechanism as not working.
