Is there a way to ask Hudson to skip the scm poll during a build?

Question

I have configured a job in hudson that's linked to an SCM, is there a way for me to get hudson to not poll the scm before starting the build? I'd like to ideally not have to create a separate job for this.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Turn off "Poll SCM" checkbox in the area "Build Triggers". This should it be.

Answer 2

It sounds like you want to trigger a build on commit, but without polling; if this is the case, you can configure a post-commit hook to call a URL (works for CVS or SVN, not sure about other SCMs). The Hudson wiki has some information about this here.
