“tar” functionality does not nicely handle links, and never has. How about using “cpio –pdum” or “pax” to copy the directory?
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jenkinsnewbie Sent: January-13-15 11:33 To: [email protected] Subject: Efficient way to copy artifacts(with symlinks) across workspace I have a very specific issue. Problem is: I need to copy artifacts from one directory in workspace to another. some of the artifacts contain symlinks. I use the solution as provided in: https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/commit/e15b2e19e394f5d63183f01a2e72a14115a0c370 i.e. taring the source and untaring at destination. But it sometimes fail at the slaves. Does anyone have a better solution? Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
