Deleting/renaming jobs using external builds directory does not move builds

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      If you set the external builds directory for Jenkins to e.g. /tmp/builds/${ITEM_FULL_NAME} and build some job, then rename it, the existing build records will remain in /tmp/builds/oldname/* and be inaccessible. Similarly, if you delete the job, the build records will be left behind, potentially consuming a great deal of disk space.
