Title: Message Title

Josh Davidson commented on JENKINS-18938   Re: COPYARTIFACT_BUILD_NUMBER_ does not preserve numbers in job names I'm assuming the numbers are removed because on some systems, environment variables cannot start with a number. However, the implementation creates difficult to workaround aliasing problems where job names like my_build_win32 and my_build_win64 resolve to same variable (my_build_win_). A better implementation that only removes numbers from the start of the variable would be: projectName.toUpperCase().replaceAll("^[^A-Z]+", "_").replaceAll("[^A-Z0-9]+", "_") // Variables must begin with a letter (or underscore) and consist of letters, numbers, and _ This prevents invalid variables and should avoid aliasing for 99.5% of job names.
