Background
My git repository is hosted by a Gerrit server. We also use Jenkins along with the Gerrit Event and the git plugin to run jenkins automatic jobs when the recall is ported to Gerrit.
Say git repo has the following folder structure
ProjectA
- .git
- folderA
- folderA/folderA1
- folderA/manual_tests
- folderA/manual_tests/file1
- folderB
- folderB/folderB1
- folderB/manual_tests/file2
- folderC
- folderC/folderC1
- folderC/manual_tests/file3
- folderD
- folderD/folderD1
- folderD/folderD1/FolderD11
- folderD/folderD1/FolderD11/manual_tests/file4
- folderD/folderD1/FolderD12
- folderD/folderD2
Currently, the Jenkins job is defined to run in all branches, specifying Type Pathwith a pattern **. This configuration causes the task to run with each scan.
Problem
Here is what I am trying to accomplish:
- If the code review contains only the changes made to any folder
manual_tests, I do not want Jenkins Jobs to start. - If the overview contains at least one file / folder that is not
manual_tests, task trigger
File Path RegExp (?!.*manual_tests.*).*, . , .
Jenkins, gerrit manual_tests?
