Groovy slash operator (Jenkins job-dsl)

Question

We would like to understand a couple of obsolete job-dsl scripts, but don’t know what the “slash operator” means in this context (since it cannot be a division):

def command = (shells.first() / command)

We tried to find it in several Groovy books, but found only a trivial solution that means "division."

This is an XML Node operation to return an XML node under a node or create one if it does not exist. Probably commandnode under the first of your nodes shells.
