💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'jar' without wildcard does not match files.

The includes parameter needs a pattern with a wildcard to match all '.jar' files, so '*.jar' is correct.

Common Mistakes

Using different names for stash and unstash causes errors.

The stash and unstash names must match. Here, 'textfiles' is used for both to pass '.txt' files correctly.

Fill all three blanks to stash '.log' files, unstash them, and then archive the logs.

Common Mistakes

Mismatched stash names or setting allowEmptyArchive to false causing errors.

The stash and unstash names must match ('logfiles'). Setting allowEmptyArchive to true avoids errors if no logs exist.
