allow users to keep their current Jenkinsfile on import

[jstrachan]

right now we override the Jenkinsfile with the chosen selection

What happens when their current file changes how the build works and things break?

[jstrachan]

we replace the Jenkinsfile and use the new Jenkinsfile to run the first pipeline right now.

we've no idea if other Jenkinsfiles would even work inside kubernetes as a Jenkinsfile can do anything and be written for any kind of jenkins server / platform (e.g. doing native docker stuff or assuming old style jenkins slaves)

[joshuawilson]

That is what I thought, so why suggest keeping their Jenkinsfile?

[jstrachan]

Burr suggested we may want this as an option ;)

TBH I see this as pretty low priority really, as few folks will have effective Jenkinsfiles yet that work on OSO and do CI / CD properly - but some advanced user may wanna do their own Jenkinsfiles (at their own risk)
