Plugin Updates for jenkins 1.6x ?

[Torsten Reinhard]

Hi,

I know there is Jenkins 2.x out for quite a while - but for "historical reasons" we still rely on the old 1.6x version in some projects.
Is there a way to get the latest plugin updates for that version without downloading them manually?

Most of the shown Updates depend on 2.x version, so I always have to manually upload an old version of the requested plugin,
which is not very handy.
Wouldn´t it make sense to have an own update-site, where the latest versions of the 1.6x release are available?

Thanx for your answers,

regards, Torsten

We don't consider Jenkins 2.0 to be a major release in the semver sense. It has very little technical incompatibilities[1], so I'd re-examine the decisions that make you stay on 1.x.
