Has anyone else seen this behavior? My job configuration history contains entries for the Git Parameter Plugin when we do not make changes to this plugin. We see a new value for the UUID element of the plugin, but that is not something we have control of. This clutters the configuration history with entries unrelated to physical users.
If this is not a defect, then perhaps there should be an option to exclude, or at least filter, the config history to only entries resulting from actual user changes. It is easy enough to ignore entries by user SYSTEM, but when we get multiple changes resulting from a user making changes, we want to exclude config history that is injected by plugins unrelated to the actual change.
