Input file auto-update

[hardcore-code]

Problem

When we create a new job definition, the notebook is copied somewhere in the server.

Quite often you change that file and the you need to recreate everything.

Proposed solution

It would be incredible to have the option to retain the link to the original file. Kind of NO_COPY. It would save a lot of time.

Would be nice to have a way to have the job connected to a file path instead of saving a copy of the file that requires a manual update...

It could be an option during the creation/editing.

The field "url" that you have in the db table could be used for that purpose....

Maybe you would need to add an additional flag field called "linked". Once it is true, scheduler uses the url as a link to the file. Once false, use as it is now, a copy to a specific folder in the server.
