SEMVER Update Type:
Description:
add
update_notificationflag tonotifyjob, which will update the top level message in the thread instead of appending a new message to the bottom of the thread. If no thread is found or no thread is specified, defaults to a regular notification posting.also added a charset to the slack api curl statement to address the
missing charsetwarning from the slack apiMotivation:
By updating the top level message instead of posting threaded replied, it is easy to update the progress of a job without sending new notifications for each update. This also allows for links or actions to be "enabled" after the job completes, such as when a deploy is successful, providing next steps and additional info in the top level message.
