If you use a post-commit hook/script to call a jenkins build, then you can have the hook/script use a regex matching the file types you want to watch and only trigger a build if a match is found. If you are using polling and use Subversion for your SCM, then in the Source Code Management section under the Subversion Modules subsection, choose advanced and place a regex matching the file types you want to watch in the included regions box. Or you can exclude certain files, users, commit messages, or revisions with specfic revision properties using the excluded regions box, excluded users box, excluded commit messages, or exclusion revprop name fields. If you are using polling and use Git for your SCM, then using the additional behaviors pulldown, you can ignore commits from specific users, on specific paths, or with specific commit messages. To build on polling if specific files/paths changed, use the "Polling ignores commits in certain paths" behavior (I know... not obvious) and put your regex of files to trigger the build in the included regions box. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
