Hi

Is there a way to pass global variables between jobs?

Is there a way to run a script only once within a build, and not for each jobs?

    Could you please give me a real-world scenario for these requirements?

    We are using those steps as some kind of QA

    # search for TODO within source tree
 grep -r TODO *
# search for FIXME within source tree
  grep -r FIXME *
# search for HACK within source tree
  grep -r HACK *
# some statistics about the code base
  script: sloccount .

    The results are the same whatever matrix row is eun. So this feature will allow to reduce the overall time of execution by running those steps only once.

    How would you know which job should run that script/sequence?

    If you are not going to have multiple jobs under your account to run jobs in parallel I'd probably replace matrix with a custom PowerShell script building those combinations and running as a single job/build.
