A report that searches the job BOMs for a file that matches
an MD5 value. The MD5 hash value is a digital fingerprint of a file.
The Queries panel includes a report that searches the job BOMs
for a file that matches an MD5 value and, if a match is found, lists
the job tag and the file location. Use this report if you need to
search for a specific version of a file and know its MD5 value.
As a prerequisite, your projects must include the .scan baseline
or .scan checkpoint commands to store MD5 values. For details, see
the reference information for
.scan. The .scan command completes
the following tasks:
- creates a list of files in a step's working directory
- generates the MD5 values for the files in the working directory
and stores the MD5 values in the job BOM
