Remember the Build
summary
A system that preserves parameterized build inputs for the life of a version, storing branches, notes, issue IDs and artifact metadata in MySQL and exposing them via a report and HTML email. Uses Jenkins + Groovy + MySQL with Git, Gradle (or Maven), Artifactory and Tomcat deploys; postbuild scripts create git tag and aggregated notes and push artifact URLs. Prototype runs in-house across ~10 projects, produces clickable reports and emails, and handles promotion to staging/production; Windows demo has timing hiccups but the pipeline works.
