Description
Both Jenkins and Teamcity allow to run parametrized builds. This can be useful for many cases, particularly for building versions (but many other cases can exist).
Would be great to have the same feature in evergreen (currently OpsManager hucks this behavior through changing local file, say `releases.properties`, submitting patch and then discarding the local changes).
Some examples of how it's done in Jenkins and Teamcity:
