First off is Git setup, I suppose. I want to fire a Jenkins job whenever my LOCAL repository is committed, not waiting until it gets pushed to github. It seems like Jenkins is setup to slave of fgithub. How can I make that work right? I am lost in all the various plugins for git and github.

Many thanks,
Rob

Hi,

i guess this problem is related to files still opened by Jenkins or
another process.

I experience this problem only on Windows when cleaning the workspace.

You should use the equivalent of 'lsof' to find out what file is still
in use by which process.

regards

Dirk

I stopped using git and went back to what was working before, which was
setting up a maven2 project. Now I develop in eclipse and I can launch a
build manually, whenever I want to build the jar and run the tests. To get
it working, I set the global workspace to my eclipse workspace and then
specify the project pom, like: "murmur-events/pom.xml".

So, sticking to Git, how should I setup a project to use the git SCM? Which
plugin should I use and how should I configure it?
1) I would like to run a build, automatically, whenever the local repository
gets a commit.
2) Just to know, I would also like to run a build whenever I push to github.

thanks!
Rob

That would explain the failures mentioned in your previous post wrt. to
not being able to wipe the workspace.

In eclipse you should install the eGit plugin and execute a 'share
project' with it. The git repository can then reside in your eclipse
project.

In jenkins you would create a maven job using git as your SCM. Point git
at your project. You can have it poll your repository every 5 minutes or
you can set up your git repository to use a commit hook that triggers a
build in jenkins.

Have a look at this blog by kawaguchi san:
http://kohsuke.org/2011/12/01/polling-must-die-triggering-jenkins-builds-from-a-git-hook/.

I have not done this myself yet. So i leave it for another day.
