Mickael Istria commented on JBIDE-15135:
----------------------------------------

{quote}yes, but I reckon it should be the actual remote branch - i.e. "origin/jbosstools-4.2.x" ? {quote}
"actual remote branch" only has a meaning when user/Jenkins has used "git checkout remotes/origin/jbosstools-4.2.x". This operation creates a detached HEAD which keeps in its name the branch from where it was created. But this is not a very sustainable value.
In which scenario would this value be useful?

> In order to make it easier to deal with Nexus and to have an homogeneous way to access build metadata (commit id), it would be interesting to move creation of metadata at assembly time (same time as when we create index and so on), and put it directly into the site.
> Then whether we use Nexus or a home-made publication, we are sure that we can access metadata whenever we can access the binaries.
