The Jenkins Install jobs check out the configuration files in
- https://svn.its.yale.edu/repos/shibboleth/yale-shibboleth-installer/trunk (for DEV)
- https://svn.its.yale.edu/repos/shibboleth/yale-shibboleth-installer/tags/Release (for TEST or PROD).
To work on Shibboleth configuration, use Eclipse to check out the current trunk (from the URL listed above for DEV). Edit changes into the file and commit the changes to the trunk. Run the Jenkins DEV install job and test the changes in the development environment. Generally you continue making changes this way until you need to push something into TEST or PROD, which you try to put off until it is necessary.
