We don't have a good source currently no, but something to keep in mind. 
Ideally we would want to create a common
source for both jib-profiles.js and the gitactions to read from. I would prefer 
something that can be read both as a
properties file and sourced as a shell script, much like the version-numbers 
file currently is. That could be done as a
separate change though.
