5.2.4 Release Notes

Release Date

9:00pm PST, Thursday, Feb 23, 2017

Features

• More environmental variables in runSh and runCLI jobs: Environmental variables POINTER, SEED, RESOURCENAME_HTTPS_URL, RESOURCENAME_SSH_URL and RESOURCENAME_KEYPATH are added. Read more in our documentation

Fixes

• Newly created branches were not displaying without force syncing project: This fix ensures the branch list for a project is updated each time a build is triggered.
• envsubst command does not work: The default images are updated to include the gettext package
• 'Reset' button shown for non-Shippable initialized Custom Nodes: Custom hosts that used the option I want to run the scripts myself to initialize nodes cannot be reset. The scripts have to be re-downloaded and run on the node. This fix hides the 'Reset' button
• rSync jobs fail for some Bitbucket customers
• time resources occasionally trigger twice
• Build stuck at Provisioning a node for subscription: for projects that were previously paused: The fix sets the project's properties correctly when paused. The builds will run successfully, after the project is resumed.
• Pull Request web hooks fail to trigger CI: This fix adds a retry logic to mitigate the issue
