Consistent notification usage between stage-level and top level

XMLWordPrintable

      We currently have postBuild and notifications sections at the top level of pipeline. It is possible to send notifications in either of them. Notifications in postBuild are sent from a node while notifications within notifications are sent outside of a node. Some plugins like 'email-ext' must be within a node to work and will not work in the notifications section.

      Within a stage we have only a post section but no notifications section. All notifications within a stage must be done in the post block.

      This inconsistency between stage-level settings and top-level settings and support for different plugins creates unneeded complexity in trying to document best practices for usage.

      We should either create a notifications section at the stage level or document how to do notifications with post and postBuild only.
