Final stage is not executed when stopping a build

Question

When setting up a build with a final stage, I expect that this stage is always executed. But when a build is stopped, the stage is not executed. Why is that and how can I make this stage executed, even if the build is stopped? For final tasks it works, but not for final stages.

final tasks are executed even when the job is manually stopped, but final stages are not. It's confusing.

If user decides they want to interrupt the build process then build process is interrupted, it's that simple.

You can stop individual jobs and in that case, the final stage is going to be executed.
