Gitlab CI cache upload fails silently
This is related to but a little different from issue #1965 (closed)
We are using the distributed build cache feature and have minio running behind a proxy. For some cache uploads, the proxy was returning a 413 Request Entity Too Large
error when the upload was larger than the proxy's configured maximum upload size.
This was harder to debug than it could have been because the upload was failing silently.
The builds where the upload failed ended with:
Creating cache cachekeyishere...
Created cache
Job succeeded
It would have been much easier to debug this issue if the build output indicated that the (distributed) cache had not been successfully created, instead of simply saying 'Created cache'.
For cache & artifact uploads/downloads, success/failure should probably be clearly indicated in the build output.
