Jenkins Web FE: Disable linebreak?

[Jan-Benedict Glaw]

Hi!

I've setup Jenkins, with ~ 2k jobs to build GCC, glibc, Binutils,
NetBSD, crosstool-NG, buildroot etc. It's using several builders,
usually starting Docker containers (or VMs to build NetBSD natively
within NetBSD to get even wider reproducibility comparisons.)

With an older Jenkins version, I had a hack (found somewhere) to
disable console output line wraps, but (minimized) CSS files changed
to the point I cannot easily reproduce the same result with today's
Jenkins versions.

As I'm not at all into CSS, I would be grateful if somebody could
give me some hint (eg. a `sed` command or the like) to have a
horizontal scrollbar instead of wrapped long lines.

Thanks a lot!

Answering myself: It seems this does do the job:

sed -i -e 's/white-space:pre-wrap//' /var/cache/jenkins/war/jsbundles/styles.css

Maybe it would be feasible to make this configurable? Or to include
another CSS file (empty by default) to allow site admins to fiddle
with it? Or are there better ways of doing it?

Thanks,
Jan-Benedict
