Post Build Tasks blocking concurrent builds

[jeremybarr]

If I am running basically a PR build/merge job on multiple nodes, the post build tasks wait on any previous jobs running before they will finish. In the case of PR builds, there is not always the need to wait on previous builds when running concurrently on multiple nodes since they may be from different PRs. Would it be possible to add an option to not have the post build tasks wait on checkpoints?

Not sure if this is possible. Worth looking into if someone wants to take this up

@nemccarthy: You need to change the return value of getRequiredMonitorService() in StashPostBuildComment from BuildStepMonitor.BUILD to BuildStepMonitor.NONE. See http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/tasks/BuildStep.html#getRequiredMonitorService--

So your code must look like this public BuildStepMonitor getRequiredMonitorService() { return BuildStepMonitor.NONE; }
