      I would like a job to build my projects, but build a different ant target
      depending on how it was triggered. For example I would like to have the normal
      build run off Polling the SCM. This does an svn update, builds the project and
      runs some unit tests. Every night at 2am I would like to do all the above, but
      delete my build folder first so I get a totally clean build and also run some
      integration tests.

      If I could somehow tell ant to run a different target for the different build
      triggers, or set an environment variable that I could look at inside the ant
      build, or...

      Is this currently possible?

          If Hudson could pass the trigger event (as text) to the builders they could
          react on them. E.g.
          ant -Dhudson.trigger=manual mytarget
          ant -Dhudson.trigger=downstream mytarget
          ...
