Problem in conjunction with configuration history plugin about ghprb-plugin HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi @christofdamian We also use both the ghprb plugin and the jobHistory plugin. We encountered this problem, because it was making a significant dent in our disk usage.

We got around it by putting a pattern in the master configuration. Specifically, we went to Manage Jenkins > Configure > JobConfigHistory > Advanced, and put a pattern in the "System configuration exclude file pattern" field.

I honestly don't remember if there were any pre-filled values in that field, but here's our entire field as an FYI: queue|nodeMonitors|UpdateCenter|global-build-stats|GhprbTrigger. I don't remember if it was pre-filled when we adjusted it...but you can see the last pipe handles this plugin. A couple of the others there were also taking up unnecessary space (at least, for us).

Jenkins core and ghprb code design makes this. Jenkins store data in deseralised xmls and JobConfigHistory just saving any changes, that are constant in ghprb plugin.

For now I removed JobConfigHistory, because I can't live without ghprb
