When I say Jump, Jenkins asks how high

... if you want even faster feedback than waiting for Jenkins to poll your stuff

- In project config within Jenkins. Check: "Trigger builds remotely", add a token, like "foobar" into the textbox.

- SSH to your SVN-server and find the project home within svnroot.


- Here is my post-commit hook:
finn@subversionserver:/var/svnroot/myproject/hooks$ cat post-commit

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/wget -O /dev/null --auth-no-challenge --http-user=finn --http-password=JENKINS_PASSWORD http://jenkinsserver:8080/view/Finn/job/myproject/build?token=foobar

If you don't have authentication on Jenkins, remove --http-user and --http-password
