Description:

Currently, users of "Execute shell" builds must fetch the jenkins-cli jar and execute it in order to mark a build as unstable. For example:

set -e
wget ${JENKINS_URL}jnlpJars/jenkins-cli.jar
make
if ! make check; then 
  java -jar jenkins-cli.jar set-build-result unstable && exit 0
  exit 1
fi

will flag as unstable and exit.

That works, but it's a right pain. The alternative is text-finder plugin string matching, which is arguably worse.

What'd be ideal is to let the return code 2 mean "unstable" to Jenkins. So one could just replace the above with:

set -e
make
make check || exit 2

I'll see what's involved in adding this, but wanted to put the idea out.
