Without getting too detailed, (my time, your sanity) we've got a few Jenkins jobs that kick off rather long shell scripts, which execute steps in parallel by using & operators. When the scripts have a "set -x" in the beginning, the lines get echoed to the Jenkins console. However, they appear to arrive out of order.
Script: do thing 1 & do thing 2 & do thing 3 & do thing 4 & wait do thing 5 Jenkins log: + do thing 2 + do thing 1 + do thing 3 + wait + do thing 4 + do thing 5 I'm assuming it's just a buffering problem, since the scripts appear to be executing properly (judging by the output), but I wanted to double-check with the smart people on the internet. Any fix? If a manager sees this and asks about it, I don't really want to have to fall back to "umm... because it just does that?" as my answer.
