Seed Jenkins plug-in

The Seed project aims to help automating the generation and management of pipelines for branches of a project in Jenkins.

Its behaviour is illustrated by the diagram below:

• having an initial Seed job to generate/update Project seed jobs
• each project is hold in its own folder
• the Project seed job is used to generate/update one Branch seed job for a given branch
• each branch is hold in its own folder
• the Branch seed job is used to generate/update the pipeline for the branch

Those jobs can be triggered automatically when some events are received on some connectors.

Note that the names and contents of the different levels of seed jobs can be configured to suit your needs.
