Clarify the behavior of the "Build Triggers" checkboxes

    • tfs-plugin
    • None

      The tfs-plugin provides two checkboxes for triggering builds:

      • Build when a change is pushed to TFS/Team Services
      • Build when a change is pushed to a TFS pull request

      I found that these checkboxes were essentially ignored and a build was always triggered from a PR if the Jenkins service hook was configured as expected.  With the “build when a PR is pushed” checkbox unchecked in both the project and the system configuration, I could create and update PRs and they would still trigger builds in Jenkins.

      Either these checkboxes are not working as expected, or they need a better description/help text to describe their intended use.

          My interpretation is that "Build when a change is pushed to TFS/Team Services" means the project should  build when a "git.push" event is received from TFS, and "Build when a change is pushed to a TFS pull request" means it should build when a "git.pullrequest.merged" event is received.

          I agree with your findings and think it's not working as expected.
