Deleting a branch is definitely not an option. The actual scenario here is that when end-to-end tests are run, if they fail then I want to disable all other jobs (why? Because that's the task I was handed... I don't necessarily agree with this...).
In my case those other jobs are of type multi branch. I can't delete the branch in question because it is the develop branch... :) So I'm just looking to programmatically disable such jobs and then how to manually enable them (after the issue in the test failure was resolved).
