Archiving artifacts fails if jenkins is not owner of builds dir

XMLWordPrintable

      In our setup the builds dir is a symlink to a network filesystem, hence Jenkins user has write permissions but is not owner of that directory.  When trying to archive artifacts following error occurs:

      java.nio.file.FileSystemException: /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/GeoGebra-autotest/builds/17371/archive/desktop/build/install/desktop/lib/impl.jar: Operation not permitted

      This is a regression between 2.107.3 and 2.121. Problem is that FilePath.copyRecursiveTo (https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/blob/master/core/src/main/java/hudson/FilePath.java ) is now using 

      Files.copy(fileToPath(f), fileToPath(writing(target)),                                StandardCopyOption.COPY_ATTRIBUTES, StandardCopyOption.REPLACE_EXISTING); 

      and the COPY_ATTRIBUTES flag does triggers the "operation not permitted" error (timestamp can't be changed in directory not owned by jenkins).
