Hi all, I'm new to Jenkins and finding it very useful. I'm also getting used to the Git flow pattern and I wanted to integrate it with my Jenkins builds so I started to develop a Maven extension to do that.
Basically, my extension will do the following: 1. Find the checked out Git ref (from the repository, or from a Maven command line property for overrides or when HEAD is detached) and matche it with a regular expression pattern provided in a specific profile property. If there is a match, the profile is active. (The extension does some checking to try to find the correct Git repository (not working trees) for each project/pom.xml file in case there are multiple Git repositories involved in the build.) 2. Get the HEAD commit message and do a similar regular expression match. If a match is found, the profile is active but only for this commit. 3. Check the commit messages starting from HEAD, up to some depth, for a regular expression match for an on/off indicator. This allows one to turn on a profile in a commit message and the profile will remain active until it is turned off in a later message. This will be an extension that is placed in the "ext" directory in the Maven installation. I'm just getting started but I should have something functional in few days or weeks and I'll share it on Github when it is ready. I would appreciate any feedback or other use cases for how I can make this extension more useful in the context of Jenkins builds.
