Thanks for bringing it up, Gopal. Although canceling the patch prevents the spam, it would be convenient if we didn't have to do that. The Apache-wide PreCommit-Admin job is the thing responsible for enqueuing patches to run in our own PreCommit-<project>-Build jobs.
https://builds.apache.org/view/All/job/PreCommit-Admin/ I suspect it would be difficult to change this to match only on *.patch, because it would require coordination across a lot of Apache projects to approve the change. Another possible solution would be to do an early exit from our own test-patch.sh if the file doesn't match *.patch. We'd still end up with job executions showing up in Jenkins, but at least they wouldn't comment on the jiras. I think it's an idea worth exploring. Let's go ahead and file a jira for it, unless others have objections.
