I'm currently trying to implement workspace cleanup plugin in my local Jenkins, but we do have an option in Jenkins job configuration page 'Clean Workspace before each build' which almost does the same job as of this plug-in apart from selectively removing the files or folders i.e (the pattern we give for inclusion /exclusion)

I would like to implement this plug-in my local Jenkins to clear up the workspace after/before each build.

A clarification b/n the above two features will be really helpful, how this plug-in differs from the option Clean Workspace before each build' or both the features does the exact same base work (cleaning-up the workspace)

Thanks in advance !
