Answer 1

You can accomplish the same using the extended choice parameter plugin before mentioned by malenkiy_scot and a simple php script as follows(assuming you have somewhere a server to deploy php scripts that you can hit from the Jenkins machine)

or

With the first option you would need to clone the repo. With the second one you don't, but in both cases you need git installed in the server hosting your php script. Whit any of this options it gets fully dynamic, you don't need to build a list file. Simply put the URL to your script in the extended choice parameter "property file" field.
