Description
Currently the workflow jobs created by this plugin have some parts of the build environment appended to the name, e.g.
Build and Test (ubuntu-latest, 2.13.6, adopt@1.8)
GitHub lets me specify that the jobs must succeed in order to merge a PR - by name:
However, if a PR changes the Scala or Java version it will be problematic to merge without disabling the rule.
In fact, I don't think I'm in control of the Java version or the "ubuntu-latest" part either.
I'd like to have an option to only have the critical pieces of environment (e.g. "Scala 2.13") in the job name, and omit everything else.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.

- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the code that generates workflow job names and any tests covering generated workflow YAML; done means an option can retain critical environment details such as Scala while omitting changing platform and version details.
