Jesse Glick commented on New Feature JENKINS-19728

even when I want to do this manual configuration myself I currently need to make use of at least a dozen different plugins to accomplish the task

Not when using Workflow. One job with one Groovy script which can work however you like, with no additional plugins.

In the case of your diamond dependency scenario, I think all that is really missing today is the aforementioned operator to skip a stage when there are no SCM changes in that area. If you do have dozens of dependencies, it would be convenient to have a library to implement this model based on a simple configuration DSL.

I do not think anything like this will or should become part of “basic Jenkins infrastructure”. The dependency & triggering logic built into Jenkins core is already far too complex. That is why we created Workflow—the existing system did not scale up to more sophisticated scenarios.
