I don't understand how we would detect the difference in the git plugin between "shortly after job creation" and long term running behavior. If a previously unknown branch is detected, and if that branch matches the wildcard provided in "Branches to build", then that branch will be scheduled to build. If we insert a heuristic for the age of the branch, then we will have some users complaining about the heuristic being the wrong value, or we must prompt for them to enter a "branch age" value into the plugin. Both seem like it is a "can't win" situation. The user doesn't know the value to use, and any branch age value we choose will be wrong for some set of users.
