Neither Jenkins or Git really support having multiple projects in one Git repository (at least not yet). The difficulties you are experiencing are a result of that.
I always thought you have to specify polling schedule if you check the polling box... but you can make the polling cycle very long, e.g. once a week. -- Sami Paul Hoadley <phoad...@gmail.com> kirjoitti 25.8.2012 kello 14.37: > Hello, > > I'm using Jenkins 1.464.
