Hi, Is it possible for you to create a dir source/Makedir and move Makefile into it ? At least can you create Makedir and make a symlink to makefile into it.
Then, you configure 2 checkout location in you jenkins job config: 1 for source/cpp and 1 for source/Makedir and you've reached your objective. regards didier On Feb 21, 6:30 pm, Chris Withers <ch...@simplistix.co.uk> wrote: > Hi All, > > I have a project with a tree structure roughly like this: > > source > source/Makefile > source/python > source/cpp > source/sql > source/lotsofotherstuff > > I have a job that builds the C++ release and then runs its unit tests. > This requires: > > source/Makefile > source/cpp > > Since Makefile is a file, not a folder, and one that for arcane reasons > I can't move from its location, I can't *only* checkout Makefile and the > cpp folder.
