Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-15135:
---------------------------------------------

I like the format/idea of using json and embedding the upstream info for verifcation purposes.

what does "knownReferences" refer to exactly ? are the unknown referenes too and why is both HEAD and master listed ?  will there ever be multiple different ones ? is it a name used by jenkins ?  I do see it lists multiple of my branches when building locally..which one is relevant ? 

Also I saw today this error:
[ERROR] Could not read build info at http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/builds/staging/jbosstools-server_master/all/repo/buildInfo.json

when running a single openshift build but the resulting buildInfo.json did not have any trace of that error.

In case it fails to get those upstream references I think that should be visible somehow in the file and we should even for a CR/GA build fail the build.

Last point: I know you guys hate (or forgot about) it  but could we please continue to use lowercase filenames, not mixed case names for artifacts ;) 
so that would be buildinfo.json, not buildInfo.json

> 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.
