Hi all, I'd like us to revive the effort at https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7435 to make precommit builds being able to work with branches. Having the Jenkins verify patches on branches is very useful even if there may be relaxed review oversight on the said-branch.
Unless there are objections, I'd request help from Giri who already has a patch sitting there for more than a year before. This may need us to collectively agree on some convention - the last comment says that the branch patch name should be in some format for this to work. Thanks, +Vinod
