Sebastien Tardif updated JENKINS-13116: --------------------------------------- Summary: Should be able to filter out natively changeset so that not all SCMs need to re-code the same logic, and also needed filtered changeset even outside SCM trigger code (was: Should be able to filter out changeset so that not all SCMs need to re-code the same logic, and also needed filtered changeset even outside SCM trigger code) Description: Running jobs has a list of changes, represented by http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/model/AbstractBuild.html#getChangeSet%28%29 We should have a way to filter out from the UI the result that getChangeSet will return. Then the many SCM plug-ins could leverage that to exclude changed path when using SCM trigger. In many SCM like git, there is no easy way to checkout only a subset of the repository. In other cases, the flexibility of excludes/includes expressions could be lot more flexible than flexible SCM like SVN. We have only a small project and we have already encounter two different use cases where this would have helped a lot: - Git SCM includes/excludes supported pattern was deficient - There is no working plug-ins that can bypass a subordinate job if no relevant changes occur (from the subset the subordinate job care about) following a periodic execution of the master job. So I would like to have a 1 line script calling getChangeSet instead of copy/pasting the same includes/excludes logic. was: Running jobs has a list of change, represented by http://javadoc.jenkins-ci.org/hudson/model/AbstractBuild.html#getChangeSet%28%29 We should have a way to filter out from the UI the result that getChangeSet will return.
