      Description

      Currently requires you to specify mapping: [file: file], which is awkward and redundant. Would prefer to have a single String-valued parameter with a list of things to unarchive to the same paths, like archive allows.

            If JENKINS-26942 were implemented, this step would be used a lot less I think.

            Prefer unstashing.

            Is unarchive actually deprecated, or just 'advanced'?

            We use a single node to build and artifact a bunch of configurations of a very large project, and they are individually unarchived and tested on other nodes. We also want them to be available as artifacts, so I'd rather not have to stash and artifact them if unarchive goes away.

            David McFarland has a good point. 'unarchive' is useful when you do want to archive things permanently. Both stashing and archiving things seems like a pain. unstash does not replace unarchive completely, as the former deals with temporary data, while the latter deals with data you want to keep permanently.

            I'm in the same boat here (deprecated vs. advanced)... an earlier stage created some RPMs, and I archived them for posterity, but now I need them when I am running my tests. They definitely have different use cases.

            As pointed out, (un)stash and (un)archive satisfy different requirements – passing information intra-job and inter-job respectively.

            In my case, I need to unarchive a stats file from the last successful build to perform some analysis.  In addition, in future I will need to unarchive the output of other projects which represent dependencies.
