Environment:Gerrit Trigger 2.21.1
Jenkins 2.7.4
Gerrit Code Review 2.12.3
My coworker has an interesting edge-case. His build failed overnight. In the morning, someone retriggered for him without telling him. He then tried to retrigger but could not because button "retrigger" was gone. It's not obvious that someone else retriggered for him. How can he know to merely wait for the retriggered build?
Request: Indicate if Retrigger is in progress.
- Ideal would be a link to the status page with the new retriggered build.
- This is helpful for multiple distributed users/supervisors working on same Gerritt.
When an offsite coworker 'helpfully' selected Retrigger, the option for Retrigger disappeared on my page. With the Retrigger option missing, I was confused whether the Retrigger was already in progress (somewhere by someone), or if something was broken (wrong permissions? similar issues have happened ...) - so I had to decide whether to do a (frowned upon) Retrigger All or chase down my broken permissions or etc..
Also, when the build is done, the page has no blatant indication that a new build has replaced/improved the results (i.e., a Rebuild from this page would be counterproductive).
