Jenkins works great to grab a set of code from a repo (like svn) and move it to another server. Here's what I am trying to do, and our sysadmin says he has seen it done.
When you configure a Jenkins job, you give it the repository URL. This would be something like https://**MYSVNURL**/**MYPROJECT***/trunk, if you are grabbing the trunk.
I want to deploy by a tag instead of the trunk, and I don't want to have to go into the job's configuration every time and specify the tag (it would be something like
https://**MYSVNURL**/**MYPROJECT***/tags/**MY_SPECIFIC_TAG**
Our sysadmin says he say a client using a sort of wizard, where a window pops up and you can enter a specific tag, which the job will then use.
Is this all crazy talk? Has anyone seen something like this?
TIA,
Mark
