bap commented on Improvement JENKINS-16743

IMO this would be a very poor addition to the plugin.

There is only one special case where the user would benefit - at all other times, it would just be meaningless.

The only time that the files would match is - 1) if the jobs build on the master jenkins server and 2) the job has already been build at least once, and the workspace is still present.

Jobs are usually configured before they are executed.
If a user uses slaves, then this would always report an error.
The Source files pattern can use tokens to locate files eg $BUILD_NUMBER these would never resolve successfully at validation time.

Checking for the existence of files in a workspace when configuring a job is just a very bad idea.
