jenkins archive artifacts - what's the format?

Question

I can't seem to figure out how to use the basic archive artifacts statement. What I want is to archive an entire subtree but naming it doesn't seem to work. Nor does directory/** nor directory/**/

I've read the ant doc but it doesn't make much sense to me.

How do I specify a subtree? Or... where can I find a meaningful description of whatever goes in that field?

Directory/**/*.* -> All the files recursively under Directory

**/*.* -> all the files in the workspace

**/*.xml -> all xml files in your workspace.

Directory/**/*.xml -> All the xml files recursively under Directory

Thank you. Why the extra period? – K Richard Pixley Nov 14 '16 at 23:53

** represent a folders hierarchy, but *.* represents the files you want to archive. you need to specify which files, and not folders, you need to archive – Dvir669 Nov 14 '16 at 23:54
If it worked for you can you please mark it as the right answer? Thanks! :) – Dvir669 Nov 16 '16 at 10:24
For the files recursively under Directory option how does it treat subfolders that hold files with the same name? – jxramos Aug 09 '18 at 16:44

It's sufficient to use `*` to denote files, that is: `Directory/**/*`. – yktoo Jan 28 '19 at 13:44
How to include a folder? – Prem Apr 22 '19 at 03:46
@Prem to include a folder, you have to include the files in the folder. e.g. `directory/**/*`. – Big McLargeHuge Aug 29 '19 at 15:52
@yktoo it depends on the Jenkins version, a lot have changed since ;) – Dvir669 Dec 12 '19 at 08:20
