[JENKINS-69678] Request for wildcard in defining Jenkinsfile paths

[jenkins-infra-bot]

I would like to be able to create a multibranch plugin project with the Script Path defined with a wildcard and capture.

As an example I'd like to define the path as something like jenkins/misc/(.*).jenkinsfile and have the generated project name match the capture.

For most projects there are a finite set of build that would be generated. But occasionally projects have a unique build and I'd like them to be able to create those ad-hoc.

The build could be found under //develop/.

It seems like this could be added to SCMFile.
