Jenkins / JENKINS-59296 support more modern archive formats Issue Type: New Feature Assignee: Oliver Gondža Components: compress-artifacts-plugin Created: 2019-09-10 12:38 Priority: Minor Reporter: Alexander Stohr the current plugin (founded in about 2014) is only capable of "ZIP" formatted archives. in the meantime a lot more advanced options have been created. these are namely: bz, bz2, gzip, 7z/xz, zipx - and others. i personally feel like ZIP as it is used now does not even allow symlinks - so e.g. when storing library folders this is likely to store groups of large but many-fold identical files. other than that i am not that sure if ZIP preserves (or is capable of preserving) all unix provided file system attributes correctly.
