Ulli Hafner commented on JENKINS-12972: --------------------------------------- I think the best approach would be to have a new plug-in that provides an extension point so that other plug-ins like the findbugs plug-in can register. This new plug-in has the knowledge on how to do the git bisect. And this plug-in needs to get an event from the findbugs plug-in (and all other participating plug-ins), when the build status has been changed. > Add option to run 'git bisect' to find which commit added new bugs > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: JENKINS-12972 > URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-12972 > Project: Jenkins > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: analysis-core, core, findbugs, git > Reporter: Eyal Edri > Assignee: Ulli Hafner > Priority: Minor > > Today, when you run find-bugs plug-in triggered by a git commit, you can't > know exactly which commit added those bugs. > It becomes especially difficult to know when a high volume of commits is > pushed at once. > find-bugs plug-in could have a new option to tick in the 'advanced section', > which will do a 'git bisect' on the git commits that caused a new bug and > display/email to commiter who did it. > that would simply and automate the process of finding who wrote the bug. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
