Using with Jenkins, output says file is built but folder does not show the file

[invinciblemuffi]

Server: CentOS
Build Tool: Jenkins 2.x
Problem: Src and Destination path are the same, want to minify js files in src folder and should be updated in that same folder where that file is present.
The console output says, "Writing file include/abc.js", when checked in server file system, the file does not show as updated file. It still shows the original one.
If I change the destination path, then the minified files are written out properly.
Is this some kind of issue or expected behavior that the plugin cannot overwrite the src file which it is minifying and update it with the new minified one.

I saw some comments on a unmerged commit that might be a fix, however, there was no pr being made here and the way github is set up I'm not sure how to find that specific patch so I could link it anyway.

[invinciblemuffi]

So you mean to say, it is an issue which is still not fixed and in open state

[avdg]

It's not even tracked on an issue tracker

[avdg]

So yeah, while at it, open the discussion :-)

[invinciblemuffi]

Can you guide me how to find this issue, so that I can show it to my other team mates

[avdg]

Hmm.. I think the issue was about something else (there was some renaming happening). This question however is asked a lot I think but I need to use search engine and stack overflow myself :/.

[avdg]

If you can, it might be better to ask on stack overflow. Github is just for issues with the package itself or pull requests

[invinciblemuffi]

ok will check

Setting destination same as source works in the latest version - closing.

Demonstrate with a (minimal) reproducible test case if you still have any issues.
