Git SCM-polling doesn't work when using a parametrized branch-name

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Setup:

      • Git Plugin 1.1.20
      • a parameterized build with parameter "Branch", default "**"
      • Git SCM with branch specifier "${Branch}"
      • SCM polling activated

      Intended behaviour:

      • if any branch changes, Jenkins checks out and builds this branch
      • when executed manually, the user enters the name of the branch to be built

      Actual behaviour:

      • no changes are detected (because the "${Branch}" value isn't resolved when polling)

            I created a pull request [1] to address the issue mentioned by Antoine Morisseau (polling should take the default value of a param, not the one from the last build).
            It also fixes the commit notification for those parametrized jobs.

            FYI for any others searching Jira - in my testing the issue Antoine identifies 3 comments above and Jean created the pull request for is no longer an issue in version 2.3.5 of the plugin.

            Actually it's not. Created JENKINS-27349 for it to have proper tracking.

            Also created related issues (that I also fixed in my original PR): JENKINS-27351 and JENKINS-27352.

            @Jean Blanchard - you are correct. 2.3.5 did change behavior and seemed to cover more of our use case than 2.3.4, but yes, it seems your patches are still needed. I've voted for your tickets. Also, for what it's worth, I have been running a SNAPSHOT version with your changes on our Jenkins instance with 1000s of jobs and haven't seen any issues. Thanks for the patches - looking forward to seeing them integrated into future releases.
