jenkins 'check-patch.sh' does not always generate
differences.html in downstream repos
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: OVIRT-1821

Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Barak Korren
Assignee: Barak Korren
Labels: standard-ci
The 'check-patch.sh' script in the 'jenkins' repo knows how to generate a
'differences.html' file when job YAML changes.
The 'jenkins' repo is designed to be used as an upstream source repo for other
repos, and it is designed that 'check-patch.sh' will be usable on those DS repos.
When YAML changes from the 'jenkins' repo make it into the DS repos via a patch
to the 'upstream-sources.yaml' file in the DS repo, and 'check-patch.sh'
runs on that repo, 'differences.html' is not being generated, because the change
to 'upstream-sources.yaml' does not look like a job YAML change.
We need to change 'check-patch.sh' so that when running in a DS repo, it knows
how to look and diagnose changes coming from the upstream repo.
