We notice that in Jenkins that there are several files referring to the build history in order to display the build history nicely on the Jenkins web app. eg in our job directory we have these files and directories: subversion.credentials svnexternals.txt lastSuccessful -> builds/2012-11-28_19-35-05 lastStable -> builds/2012-11-28_19-35-05 config.xml nextBuildNumber builds How do we accomplish our goal ? Thanks for your help
