Michael Moser commented on NIFI-2115:
-------------------------------------
I think I would prefer to just omit the build number and branch when they are
not available, such as when the official source release is built.
> Enhanced About Box Version Information
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-2115
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2115
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core UI, Tools and Build
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: James Wing
> Assignee: James Wing
> Priority: Minor
>
> The UI's About dialog and underlying API provide the version of NiFi, like
> "0.7.0-SNAPSHOT". For many bug reports and troubleshooting requests, this is
> not very precise, especially around rapidly changing code or
> platform-dependent behavior. It would help if NiFi captured and displayed
> additional information:
> * NiFi build commit hash
> * NiFi build branch
> * NiFi build date/time
> * Java Version
> * Java Vendor (Oracle, OpenJDK)
> * OS
> Then a simple copy/paste from the about box would provide very specific
> information about a particular NiFi installation and which code it was
> derived from.
