mohamed badran commented on JENKINS-38442   Re: Support nested stages in the Pipeline Graph Well currently I'm using it to be able to be able to have a like a container for the shell script in order to know what this shell script is doing since i'm not able to add a description to the shell script that will show up next to Shell Script in blueocean, as well as pipeline visualization. My ideal solution in here is to have availability to add description next to shell script so if i'm running multiple shell scripts in one stage i'd be able to easily know what is that shell script doing. Currently there are no way to do it as i understand so I've tried using nested stages to be able to separate the shell scripts and know what they do. Usage of nested stages like this is a workaround for lack of ability to add description for the shell script. Regarding a concrete use case of using nested stages would be being able to relate multiple stages to one stage, for example if I've a major step which prepares the environment, and that preparation consists of fewer stages for example 1- cleaning old data, 2- copy new data, 3- prepare area to run builds. My ideal look for that would be a parent stage which is called Prepare environment, and then when pressing on that node it would fork 3 other nodes (which are the 3 stages I've mentioned), and when you select any of the inner stages you'll be able to get the shell scripts and any other pipeline commands you were doing in such stage.
