How to hide/remove some tags from Jenkins builds?

[Gianluca]

Hi all,

some times ago we enabled the discovery of tags in our GitHub Organization project on Jenkins and now a new tab with tags and builds done by checking out the tags is availabe.

Although, after a while, we have now that tag full of a lot of tags we are not building anymore because are old or irrelevant.

Is there a way to set Jenkins to discover only certain tags based on a patter name, similar to branches?

If not what are my alternatives to hide some tags from that tab?

Thanks,

Gianluca.

Hi Dirk,

While I can vote … that is not the issue I’m facing.

There is a comment on that ticket that explain probably better that how I did in my email:

 

“As far as I understand, this works as expected. A Build Strategy is responsible for the decision whether to build a newly discovered Tag Pipeline or not. The default strategy is not to build. The "Tags" build strategy changes the default to build but can be configured to ignore old or new tags.

For the tags not to be discovered or to be skipped in the first place the "Discover Tags" behavior of the Github Branch Source plugin needs to be extended or an extra plugin developed that adds a tag filter behavior.

 

The last line is what I’d like to see achieved.

So, I would take that it’s a no. It’s not possible unless someone extend the GitHub branch source code ☹

 

That’s sad.

 

Cheers,

Gianluca.
