"however, they made one of the most comedic mistakes you can still make while setting up jenkins (im actually not sure which misconfiguration leads to this): the build information for each past build contains a link to the git repository, including the bitbucket credentials in the url. genius."

Who makes their Jenkins instance world accessible!

Who still uses Jenkins? It's an abomination of an obsolete system that is just a pain to use, manage, maintain, setup, etc. while there are much better, more featured, easier to use and maintain alternatives out there. And it has been like this for close to ten years now. It should have been ripped out in favour of either the "native" CI/CD (e.g. GitLab CI if GitLab is used for VCS, GitHub Actions if GitHub, etc.) or a modern one like Drone/Concoure/etc. years ago in any place that isn't ~two decades behind (so legacy airlines and banks?).

Anyone setting up a honey pot. Half of 4chan posts are 3 letter agencies trying to bait people into violence.

But what's the trap here? Checking who downloads the file? I don't see how they can get any actionable info out of this

“Who still uses Jenkins?”

I think you may have perhaps misjudged just how entrenched Jenkins is in corp/enterprise.

Oh they have come up with some new trash I have to learn? Great...

Say you were developing inn Angular and Python. Which one of these "alternatives" should I look in to? ie. Which is most requested by typical requiters?
