To Contributors: For this chapter, topics which apply to multiple areas and thus would repeated in multiple sections, should instead be covered in other chapters and cross-referenced. For example, a general discussion of how to deploy artifacts would go in the chapter "Using Jenkins", while language-specific examples of how to deploy artifacts in Java, Python, and Ruby, would go in the appropriate sections in this chapter. |
