Hi all,
Is it possible to configure Jenkins to email all
committers when a Job changes? As Servlet lead I would
really like to know if a job has been modified (I know we
can just ask that everyone notifies the list before they
make changes, but automated emails are much more reliable).
This also came up in a conversation I had with Greg,
where we discussed that there are a lot of committers on the
various EE4J projects (e.g. Servlet seems to have around 12
people who can modify the Jenkins jobs), and what would
happen if a committer had their account compromised.
Commits from a compromised account on Github would
probably not be much of an issue, as merging requires the
approval of another committer, however if the CI job was
modified to stage a compromised artefact it would be very
unlikely that anyone would notice unless the job needed to
be modified for some reason.
I don't really know much about Jenkins but it looks like
there is a plugin [1] that could support this, although I
assume that requires an admin to install and configure it.
