Allow users to start manual stages on a specific revision or instruct Bamboo to use the current HEAD

Problem Definition

Bamboo doesn't allow manual stages to start/ continue running from builds that were triggered before a repository change happens in the plan.

Suppose you run a build right now with stages A and B (manual) but never trigger the second manual stage B (so the build is incomplete). A few days later you decide to add or remove repositories linked to your plan. The manual stage from the build you triggered a few days ago will not get triggered because the plan state changed – Bamboo doesn't know whether revisions from the repositories that were added or removed are relevant for the plan execution anymore and doesn't allow users to continue the build.

Suggested Solution

Let users choose whether they want to start the manual stage on a specific revision or use the current HEAD to allow the manual stage to run and complete the build despite the changes made to the repositories associated to the plan.

Workaround

Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available.
