Blue Ocean 1.3
Description
tldr: Blue ocean should use the displayName if one is there, instead of build number (like the classic screen shot). The URIs are unchanged, just what is displayed in the column.
------ original: ------
-JENKINS-39850
node {
stage('start') {
currentBuild.displayName = "foo.$BUILD_NUMBER"
currentBuild.description = "foo.$BUILD_NUMBER - desc"
echo 'Hello World'
}
}
Produces the attached screenshots on our system.
Expected Behavior:
The activity screen should show displayName in the RUN column. JENKINS-39850

michaelneale Is it still possible to do a 1.3.1 release, or is one getting close? You asked me to nag. 
. I don't see a 1.3.1 available, unless I'm missing something.
akrapfl ok - may be one today https://github.com/jenkinsci/blueocean-plugin/pull/1519 will hopefully also go in.
TBH I am slightly concerned as to what people will do with currentBuild.displayName - so if you do see a 1.3.1 - please do give it a good flogging and open a ticket/ @ mention me if anything smells funny.
Fair enough. I am sure it will be abused at some point. Personally, I intend to put semver compliant version numbers in there. Something like `2.0.${BUILD_NUM}`. Possible variations would have `2.0.${BUILD_NUM}-beta`. The last segment is where i'm concerned it could be lengthy at times.
Thank you for getting it out there for us!

added a comment - In our system the MESSAGE column "alternative" is not a description, but simply shows something like "Started by <user>/upstream job" or "Replayed #?".
So, the expectation is that RUN column shows the full currentBuild.displayName buildName, whatever width it needs to be.

reinholdfuereder no worries at all - I was confused as well as I assumed it made it in.
The way JIRA is used for this project is that it shares it with many other components, so it is hard to set a "release" field so it is clear when available. I always go off the github commit history for the release/X branch as the source of truth.
If you nag me in a few days we can make sure we cut a release
