Build history widget verbosity

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      While talking to tfennelly about this seemingly unnecessary line wrap, he made a comment that the full date format currently used is often too verbose. His suggestion was to use a date divider in the history, like this:

      --- Oct 30, 2014 -------
#7526   13:56    .......
#7525   13:40    .......
#7524   13:20    .......

      Some jobs are triggered multiple times a day, while other jobs are triggered once in a quarter. The improvement would have to cover such a wide range.

            BTW, my original comment was just to avoid line wrapping. Screenshot attached.

            Doing a no-wrap and overflow can also make it look terrible.

            Hi, what now if I am not happy with this new feature. And there is more who are not happy with this new look anymore. There is already issue created JENKINS-26406.

            The problem is that HTML is not supported in build history description anymore. See issue JENKINS-26406 for more information
