is there a way in hudson or with any plugins to archive artifacts from the last X number of successful builds?

Question

i see options to either only archive artifacts from all builds, or only the artifacts from the last successful build. is there any way or with a plugin to say archive the artifacts from the last 10 successful builds?

thanks

Answer 1

Actually to keep a given number of artifacts you must select "Discard old builds" (at the very beginning of the configuration page) and input the number of build artifacts to archives. You can also consider the number of days to keep.

You can set a build be kept forever, either manually or by plugin with an automated 'release' or 'promoted' build.

I agree this is confusing.
