Description
We have this code
that infers the build duration based on Build.date. However, that date may not be accurate if the build was not immediate executed, or if it was retried a few times.
To make this infer more accurate, we should use the BuildCommand.start_date from the first build command (usually, git clone). That will give use a more realistic value here.
