-------------------------------------
Summary: Retain groupId and Id identifiers when importing Flows
from registry
Key: NIFIREG-221
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFIREG-221
Project: NiFi Registry
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: eric twilegar
We started using Nifi registry with Git integration to have some insight into
the changes being made and create a relatively standard SDLC for our Nifi
process groups ( read jobs ).
When we started only one user was making changes and so the git history was
pretty good.
When a second user imported a flow to their local machine, made changes,
committed those changes and we deployed them we took a look in Git to see the
changes the user had made.
The git diff was riddled with id and groupId process identifier changes which
made the history less useful than it could have been.
I'm not sure what your future plans are for Git so this might come out in the
wash, but we are looking forward to being able to see the diffs, approve them
and so on. I realize PRs could be a real issue as this stuff doesn't merge
well, but eventually we might want a PR from a registry to registry so this
could all tie together.
Thanks so much for the great work. Have a wonderful day.
