Set up BRL-CAD for continuous integration within Jenkins
completed by: Skriptkid
mentors: Sean
Another GCI task installed and set up the Jenkins continuous integration system for us to use. That's a system for compiling software over and over to detect quickly when changes are introduced that break either compilation or run-time behavior.
This task involves continuing that work and getting BRL-CAD properly set up within Jenkins. The details are outlined here:

The previous GCI task is here:

Since this task requires access to one of our production servers, you MUST be comfortable using a command-line (BSD/Linux/UNIX) and working on a server remotely via SSH. Join IRC and contact 'brlcad' to get an account established for working on this task.
You should also be familiar with:
- http://brlcad.org/wiki/Compiling
- http://brlcad.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/brlcad/brlcad/trunk/INSTALL
You'll keep a log of everything you do and submit that here for the task in addition to setting up the various jobs within Jenkins.
