[GitHub] nifi issue #583: NIFI-2115 Detailed Version Info for About Box

[jvwing <gi...@git.apache.org>]

    https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/583
  
    I force-pushed a substantial update/rewrite.  Changes from the previous implementation include:
    
    * Moving most of the logic to the nifi-assembly pom rather than the parent pom
    * Including the Tag property with the build information (typically HEAD for snapshot builds, RC tags for release builds)
    * Handling formal releases by using Tag, ignoring revision and branch.
    * More gracefully handling a source build outside git by using empty revision and branch
    * Updated the about box UI to selectively include information based on availability
     - Tag displayed when not HEAD
     - Revision and branch displayed when not empty
    * Included a sample UI using the System Diagnostics dialog.  I'm not suggesting we need both About and System Diagnostics, just showing sample options for discussion.
    * Rebased on recent master
